Any traditional kilt is made to stand up to the activites mentioned.
In my younger days I walked/backpacked throughout the UK, Norway and Arctic Sweden in a traditional kilt. It stood up to all the wear-including waist deep streams, neotiating obstacles and on occasion snow storms. Too in the days before modern lightweight camping pads-it was great insulation under my sleeping bag.
Today the Hill-Walker by Hector Russell is a great kilt for active and day to day wear.
Too whilst not cold by Canadian/American standards-I've been wearing my new Highland Granite Hill-Walker-in the Bristish cold snap where on one occasion the temperature got down to -4C: and was perfectly warm.
