PACKING LIST

On this hiking expedition, you will carry all your kit with you from beginning to end, so we recommend keeping your pack as light as possible.

We will provide tents (if required) and cooking stoves. We do recommend sharing a tent with another guest to lighten the load if you feel comfortable doing so. Gear you decide not to take with you on the hike can be stored in our guide’s vehicle at the start.
