Each tour requires specific equipment to bring with you depending on the destination and season. Here is what you need to participate in this activity:
Hiking shoes. The most important equipment you should have. The choice of tour also depends on the shoes you have. Sports shoes may be fine, but in this case we may have less choice of itineraries. Hiking shoes (low or ankle-high) are the best. If you are not sure about the shoes you have, you can send us a photo and we will tell you if they are suitable or not.
Backpack. It is advisable to have a small backpack to carry everything you need during the one-day excursions. For multi-day tours we require a proper hiking backpack of about 35/50 liters. If you don't have a backpack, ask us to bring one of ours for free.
Jacket. You need a lightweight jacket, preferably waterproof. The weather can change during the day and we do not want our guests to get wet or cold! An appropriate warm and waterproof technical jacket is required for multi-day tours.
Hiking poles. If you are used to hiking with poles, bring them! If you do not have them, for private tours, tell us in advance to bring ours for free.
Change of clothes Remember to bring a change of underwear and clothes for multi-day tours.
Sunglasses and sunscreen. Always recommended because coming home as red as a tomato is neither nice nor good for you and your eyes.
Outdoor wear. A technical t-shirt in case of heat (possibly not cotton but synthetic), a warm sweater in case of cold weather, outdoor trousers, good socks, especially for multi-day tours.
Water and snack. At least 1/2 liter water per person, but 1 liter is better, more would be too heavy to carry. For snacks, it's up to you, we may have lunch at a nice 'rifugio' (mountain restaurant). Please have a hearty breakfast.
Toothbrush and flip flops/slippers. For multi-day tours are always necessary.
