We see your TikTok hot-girl walks and raise you one nature walk. Going for a long walk through the woods, mountains, or on the beach can do wonders for you mentally and physically. But no nature walk is complete without a quality thermos to keep your drink cold (or hot) — and even tie your look together. So which thermoses will get the job done while still aligning with your aesthetic? Discover our five tried-and-true picks below.
Best for Water: Hydroflask Wide Mouth Bottle
Want a no-frills thermos to keep your water cold? Look no further. This Hydroflask option has a built-in straw for easy sipping your 32 oz. beverage on the move. And, it’s completely leak-proof — so feel free to throw it in your bag without worrying your phone will take an unwilling bath. The double-wall, vacuum-sealed, stainless steel interior will keep your drinks ice cold for 24 hours, and hot drinks will stay hot for up to 12 hours. It comes in nine colorways, but this periwinkle-inspired “Rain” is the perfect, calming complement to your nature walk.
Best Universal Thermos: W&P Porter Insulated Bottle
If you’re looking for something universal, this insulated bottle from Porter can house almost anything — from lattes to smoothies to soup — and maintain your desired temperature, too. There’s no built-in straw, and the mouth is relatively wide, so consider this the perfect option for those treats you want to savor with slow, present sips. It features a leak-proof lid and rubberized exterior for easy grip on the go.
Best for Coffee: Yeti Rambler 24 Oz. Mug
For those cool, early morning walks timed to the sunrise, there’s no better way to enjoy your coffee than in this Yeti Rambler Mug. The handle provides a cozy, comfortable grip, while the signature Yeti interior can keep your drink hot or cold for days. Since the design is not leakproof, it’s best for flat trails and slow, morning beach walks — not your adventurous uphill hike.
Best for Selfies: BKR Tutu 1L
If you don’t Instagram your hike, did it really happen? This glass BKR bottle is covered in a blush silicone skin and is a gorgeous complement to your next outdoor selfie. You can opt to store a removable lip balm in the cap to keep lips hydrated all day long. While the sleeve keeps your water cold for longer than regular disposable water bottles, it’s not insulated, so it’s best for shorter walks.
Best for Summit Hikes: Stanley Classic Legendary Bottle
If you prefer nature walks that end at a summit or destination where you’ll take a break and refuel, you can’t go wrong with the Stanley Classic Legendary Bottle. It’s completely leakproof and features a built-in cup (in the cap) to pour yourself some hot tea, ice-cold beer, or protein-packed soup when you reach the top or turnaround point. It will keep the bottle’s contents hot for 40(!) hours and cold for 35 hours, so it’s perfect for longer hikes and overnight trips.
