Trekking Gear
Ever wondered what one might take on a multi-day trekking trip? If yes, see below and if not, you’re in the wrong place.
I won’t go into detail about why I decide to take the following items or how I cam to any particular decisions as this can all be found using your new best friend anyway: yes Google AI!
Needless to say though keeping the weight down as much as possible should be your main goal.
