Trekking Equipment information in Nepal Trekking - What to Pack for Trek

Trekking Equipment information in Nepal Trekking

The equipment you carry with you for trekking in Nepal will be influenced by trekking, at what time of year, and modes of trekking, like teahouse or camping trekking. If you are planning trekking in Nepal, your local Trekking Agency in Nepal will arrange for all of your group's equipment, so you need only personal equipment. The main emphasis regarding equipment should be keeping you warm and dry while still being reasonably lightweight and compact. We suggest a wide range of fleece jackets and pants that will be adequate for lower or easy trekking packages. In contrast, higher or moderate trekking needs a down jacket, waterproof and windproof jacket and pants are essential as are comfortable, well broken-in footwear. For easy trekking or lower trekking altitudes, lightweight boots or shoes will be adequate, but higher altitude, where snow is likely sturdier footwear, is a wise choice.

Head covering is one of the most important things when traveling to mountain region trekking. Peaked caps for sunny days and fleece or wool caps for when it gets cold are the best combination. Other essential items to have with you include good sunglasses that give 100% protection against ultraviolet rays, a drinking water bottle. Need spare clothing, both warm and light, a torch with spare bulb and batteries, sunblock cream, toiletries, and a personal first aid kit.

As Himalayan Asia Treks - local trekking in Nepal's Trip Planner suggest, then use the services of a porter. You need to pack most of this gear in a duffle bag or similar and carry essential daily needs in a small rucksack. Whether to hire or buy equipment depends entirely on the likelihood of being used more than just one time. High-cost specialized items such as plastic climbing boots and other hardware are better hired if the intention is only to use them is one time. We suggest, if you come from a warm climate country then hire down jackets, sleeping bags.
