1. Stay hydrated regularly<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n- Plan to drink at least 1.5 liters, and up to 5\u20136 liters, spreading your intake every 20 to 30 minutes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- While cycling, sip small amounts every 10 to 15 minutes, even if you don\u2019t feel thirsty. Still or lightly mineralized water is preferable; avoid sugary or stimulating drinks.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Remember to supplement with electrolytes or salty snacks to compensate for losses through sweat.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

<\/figure>\n\n\n\n2. Choose your times wisely<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n- Prefer outings early in the morning or in the evening to avoid the hottest hours (usually between 12 p.m. and 4 p.m.).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- For hiking, starting before sunrise or finishing late in the day helps avoid extreme heat.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
3. Opt for the right routes<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n- Look for shaded paths (forest, canyons, cool areas) or near water bodies to refresh yourself.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- When cycling, favor tree-lined routes and avoid roads fully exposed to the sun.

3. Opt for the right routes<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n- Look for shaded paths (forest, canyons, cool areas) or near water bodies to refresh yourself.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- When cycling, favor tree-lined routes and avoid roads fully exposed to the sun.
Some forest walk ideas in the municipality of Beauraing*<\/em>:
\u2013 Felenne (red rectangle): walks #1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8
\u2013 Froidfontaine (green rectangle): walk #3
\u2013 Martouzin (yellow rectangle): walks #1, 2
\u2013 Wiesme (blue rectangle): walk #2
\u2013 Winenne (blue diamond or rectangle): walks #1, 2, 3, 4, 5<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n4. Adjust your effort<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n- Slow your pace, take more breaks, and be ready to slow down or turn back if necessary.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- While cycling, focus on maintaining a comfortable cadence rather than pushing for performance.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
<\/figure>\n\n\n\n5. Protect yourself from the sun<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n- Wear a wide-brimmed hat or cap with neck protection, sunglasses, and apply sunscreen regularly.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Dress in light, breathable, loose-fitting clothing in light colors, ideally with UPF protection.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
<\/figure>\n\n\n\n6. Listen to your body<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n- Be alert for early signs of heat stress: dizziness, fatigue, cramps, confusion. If you experience more severe symptoms (dry skin, loss of consciousness\u2026), seek coolness immediately and call for help.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Adjust your pace according to your acclimatization level (10\u00b0C above usual can already be a risk).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
7. Have an emergency plan<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n- Inform someone of your route and expected return time.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Carry a charged phone, a map, and signaling devices (whistle, etc.) to be easily located if needed.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nConclusion<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nA heatwave doesn\u2019t mean giving up: with good preparation, a few adjustments, and vigilance, you can continue walking, hiking, or cycling safely and comfortably. Adopt these simple habits\u2026 and enjoy every step (or pedal stroke) without overheating!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some forest walk ideas in the municipality of Beauraing*<\/em>:
\u2013 Felenne (red rectangle): walks #1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8
\u2013 Froidfontaine (green rectangle): walk #3
\u2013 Martouzin (yellow rectangle): walks #1, 2

<\/figure>\n\n\n\n4. Adjust your effort<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n- Slow your pace, take more breaks, and be ready to slow down or turn back if necessary.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- While cycling, focus on maintaining a comfortable cadence rather than pushing for performance.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
<\/figure>\n\n\n\n5. Protect yourself from the sun<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n- Wear a wide-brimmed hat or cap with neck protection, sunglasses, and apply sunscreen regularly.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Dress in light, breathable, loose-fitting clothing in light colors, ideally with UPF protection.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
<\/figure>\n\n\n\n6. Listen to your body<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n- Be alert for early signs of heat stress: dizziness, fatigue, cramps, confusion. If you experience more severe symptoms (dry skin, loss of consciousness\u2026), seek coolness immediately and call for help.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Adjust your pace according to your acclimatization level (10\u00b0C above usual can already be a risk).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
7. Have an emergency plan<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n- Inform someone of your route and expected return time.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Carry a charged phone, a map, and signaling devices (whistle, etc.) to be easily located if needed.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nConclusion<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nA heatwave doesn\u2019t mean giving up: with good preparation, a few adjustments, and vigilance, you can continue walking, hiking, or cycling safely and comfortably. Adopt these simple habits\u2026 and enjoy every step (or pedal stroke) without overheating!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/figure>\n\n\n\n5. Protect yourself from the sun<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n- Wear a wide-brimmed hat or cap with neck protection, sunglasses, and apply sunscreen regularly.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Dress in light, breathable, loose-fitting clothing in light colors, ideally with UPF protection.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
<\/figure>\n\n\n\n6. Listen to your body<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n- Be alert for early signs of heat stress: dizziness, fatigue, cramps, confusion. If you experience more severe symptoms (dry skin, loss of consciousness\u2026), seek coolness immediately and call for help.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Adjust your pace according to your acclimatization level (10\u00b0C above usual can already be a risk).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
7. Have an emergency plan<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n- Inform someone of your route and expected return time.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Carry a charged phone, a map, and signaling devices (whistle, etc.) to be easily located if needed.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nConclusion<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nA heatwave doesn\u2019t mean giving up: with good preparation, a few adjustments, and vigilance, you can continue walking, hiking, or cycling safely and comfortably. Adopt these simple habits\u2026 and enjoy every step (or pedal stroke) without overheating!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/figure>\n\n\n\n6. Listen to your body<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n- Be alert for early signs of heat stress: dizziness, fatigue, cramps, confusion. If you experience more severe symptoms (dry skin, loss of consciousness\u2026), seek coolness immediately and call for help.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Adjust your pace according to your acclimatization level (10\u00b0C above usual can already be a risk).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
7. Have an emergency plan<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n- Inform someone of your route and expected return time.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Carry a charged phone, a map, and signaling devices (whistle, etc.) to be easily located if needed.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nConclusion<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nA heatwave doesn\u2019t mean giving up: with good preparation, a few adjustments, and vigilance, you can continue walking, hiking, or cycling safely and comfortably. Adopt these simple habits\u2026 and enjoy every step (or pedal stroke) without overheating!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
