Packing Guide

Layering, footwear and the small things that matter at altitude.

Clothing

Layer: base layer, fleece, insulated jacket and a windproof shell. Valley days can be warm while nights drop sharply.

Modest clothing is appreciated in villages and bazaars.

Gear

Broken-in walking shoes, sunglasses, high-SPF sunscreen, a power bank, a headtorch and a reusable water bottle with purification.

Documents and cash

Carry printed copies of ID and enough cash for valleys where card payment is not available.
