Swiss here, can confirm hiking, but only in the mountains, it's too hot elsewhere.

But I'm in Scotland right now, and it's definitely pints with the lads here as usual. To he fair, their summer is also very average, mostly cool and it's looking like it could be raining any moment now 24/7.

Thing is, it may be less hot but at high altitudes you'll get some nasty sunburn real fast if you forget your sunblock

It's because the sunlight reaches you faster at the high altitude.
