Comfortable warmth, with cooler evenings
The usual daytime warmth makes June a practical choice for spending time outside without planning your whole day around avoiding heat. There can still be hotter spells: the warmest days reach around 27°C or more, so lighter clothing and a break from the midday sun may be welcome. Evenings call for a different approach. With average night temperatures around 13°C and the coldest nights dropping to about 9°C or below, bring a jumper or light jacket for staying out late. Layers make more sense than a suitcase packed only for summer heat, especially if you tend to feel the cold.
Long days, but keep a wet-weather option
June gives you about 16.1 hours of daylight, which leaves plenty of flexibility over when to head out. Sunshine averages about 6.4 hours a day, though, so long days do not mean consistently clear skies. Rain is the main catch: this is a wet month, not a dependable choice for an entirely outdoor trip. Pack a lightweight waterproof and shoes you are comfortable wearing in wet conditions, and leave room to rearrange your plans. The daylight makes it easier to shift an outdoor walk to later if conditions improve, but there is no guarantee that rain will be brief or conveniently timed.
