We recommend the following for a multi-day trek in Nepal. Equipment requirements vary according to the region you are planning on. Hence, the following list is only a rough guideline and can be adjusted.
You can rent or buy most of the trekking gears in Kathmandu. The shops range from cheap locally manufactured to ones imported from China and even foreign imported trekking goods of the best quality.
There’s a balance to what you should bring on a trek to make sure you’re not carrying too much or too little. If you’re not sure, get in touch with us and we will guide you through.
