Description

Always bring a first aid kit!

You should always have this tiny and light first aid kit with you, because accidents don’t give warnings. You can carry it in your handbag or backpack, and it’s great for the car, office drawer, or desk. It’s especially useful in a hiking bag, as you’ll have fewer options in the deep woods than in other situations. This first aid kit has everything you need to cover minor injuries. Always be prepared and keep this handy kit within reach.

The kit itself is durable

The pouch of the Mil-Tec mini first aid kit is made of thick Rip-Stop nylon, with inner walls covered in waterproof material. The kit is secured with a wrap-around zipper. When unzipped, the entire pouch opens up, making it easy to access all compartments. You can attach a strap or carabiner to the bag. The system of sections and inner pockets makes sorting medications and tools simple.

What else to pack in your hiking med kit?

It’s definitely worth bringing some medications like painkillers, charcoal tablets, cold relief, and antiseptic. You should also think ahead about intestinal infections and bring water purification tablets to make water collected from natural sources drinkable and to kill all pathogens. Katadyn Micropur Forte water purification tablets are perfect for this.

It’s also worth packing Tactical Foodpack Outdoor Shower for multiple purposes; its panthenol content makes it suitable for cleaning superficial scratches and wounds. It’s skin-friendly, non-irritating, and preservative-free, and you should have it with you anyway for freshening up.

And importantly, you should definitely review all first aid techniques before heading out. How to make a splint, what to do in case of a snake bite, and other vital skills. Also, carry a power bank and a phone with a fully charged battery, as mobile coverage luckily reaches many forest areas nowadays, allowing you to call for help if needed.
