What should I wear to explore a prairie?

​

Prairies are a really cool place to explore, however most people are unsure of what to wear the first few times they go out in them.

Though prairies are mainly grass, they also have a lot of other plants in them that can scratch your legs and poke your feet.

​

For walking around on a prairie it's best to have;

• Long pants

• Boots with ankle support (hiking boots)

• Brimmed hat (for sun protection)

• Sunscreen and bug spray

• Lots of water

• ​

It's also important to note you can get ticks while out in the prairie so you should do a tick check when you get back.​
