The Last Weekend of the Summer Holidays: 5 Ways to Make the Most of It Outdoors
Before school starts, early mornings return and everyday routines take over again, there is still one last weekend of the summer holidays to enjoy. You don't have to travel far or plan a big trip. Just head outside and make the most of the final summer days.
Whether you want to spend it with your children, partner, friends or simply enjoy some time to yourself, we have 5 simple ideas for outdoor activities.
What can you do on the last weekend of the holidays?
Discover a place you didn't have time to visit all summer.
A blanket, something tasty and a few hours without rushing.
Cycling, walking or your favourite hiking route.
Organise your own mini Olympics or a fun competition.
A campfire, camping or a walk under the stars.
Take the trip you've been meaning to go on all summer
We all have a place we've been meaning to visit during the summer. A lookout tower, castle ruins, a nature reserve or simply a route we usually drive past. And suddenly, August is almost over.
The last weekend of the summer holidays is the perfect opportunity to finally make that plan happen. You don't have to travel across the country, either. Choose a destination you can comfortably visit in one day and enjoy the trip without rushing.
Mornings may already feel cooler, while daytime temperatures can still surprise you with summer warmth. Layered and functional clothing makes it easier to adapt to both the weather and the pace of your trip.
Have a picnic outdoors
Sometimes there is no need to plan a big event. All you need is a blanket, something good to eat and a pleasant spot in a park, by the water or in a meadow.
A picnic can be a relaxing family afternoon, a romantic date or a get-together with friends. Children can enjoy a ball or frisbee, while adults get a chance to take a break from screens and everyday routines.
A blanket, drinks, a light snack, sunscreen, something to play with and comfortable clothing. That's really all you need for a pleasant afternoon outdoors.
Go cycling or take a longer walk
The end of August is perfect for spending time actively outdoors. Choose a cycling route, a hiking trail or simply explore places you usually pass by.
You don't have to break records
The goal isn't maximum performance. Enjoy the fresh air, movement and time together. If you're travelling with children, an ice cream, a swim or an interesting playground along the way can be great motivation.
- ✓Functional T-shirt: comfortable when you're active and during warmer weather.
- ✓An extra light layer: mornings and evenings can already be cooler.
- ✓Quality socks: an essential part of staying comfortable on a longer walk.
- ✓Water and a small snack: because a good trip is only complete when you still have enough energy for the journey back.

Your own challenge
You don't need to prepare anything complicated. Often, all you need is what you can find in your garden or a nearby park. What matters isn't who wins, but that you finish the last weekend of the holidays with a shared experience.
Enjoy one last summer evening under the open sky
The last weekend of the summer holidays doesn't have to end as soon as dinner is over. Head outside in the evening too and enjoy the atmosphere of late summer.
Ideas for your last summer evening
🔥 A campfire in the garden • ⛺ Sleeping in a tent • 🎬 An outdoor movie • 🌙 An evening walk

The best memories are often spontaneous
You don't have to travel far or plan every minute of the day. Pick one of these activities, put on something comfortable and head outside. Summer isn't over yet.
