Equipment
MOUNTAIN FOOTWEAR (mountain boots or shoes)
In each stage and depending on the terrain condition and/or weather forecast, the type of shaft height for footwear (boot or shoe) will be recommended.
CLOTHING
Since the routes run through a medium and high mountain environment, and because it is a territory where the weather can change quickly and drastically, WE RECOMMEND, regardless of the route difficulty, the following items:
- Long pants. If the characteristics of the route along with the expected weather allow the use of shorts, carry a piece to cover the rest of the exposed leg, either by bringing a second pair of pants or long leggings in the backpack in all cases.
- First layer body (t-shirt) with short sleeves, breathable and quick-drying (tank tops are not recommended due to incompatibility with backpack carrying).
- Second layer body, thermal layer consisting of a thin/medium fleece or thermal long-sleeve shirt.
- Third layer body, waterproof and windproof rain jacket with hood.
- Cap / Buff or similar for sun protection.
Although some of these garments may not be used during the itinerary, it is recommended to carry them in the backpack throughout the journey, ready to be used in case of weather changes or any unforeseen event to avoid hypothermia in case of weather change or an incident that prolongs the day.
MINIMUM CONTENT OF THE BACKPACK
- Mountain backpack of 20-30 liters with a waterproof cover.
- Personal first aid kit with special medications if needed.
- Water (minimum 2 liters, but this will be confirmed in the informational briefing).
- Food (depending on the duration of the route).
- Sunscreen, cap/hat and sunglasses.
- Documentation and charged phone.
