GEAR LIST

We recommended you wear layered clothing especially lightweight wool or breathable polyester. Cotton clothes, like jeans, become heavy when wet, are hard to dry and can make you very cold.

We can supply a 40-litre backpack, Gore-Tex jacket, gaiters and walking poles for no extra charge. If you are using one of our backpacks, separate out your wukalina Walk gear before arriving at the Elders Centre so it’s ready to go straight into the pack. 

You will be carrying your own personal belongings on the hike so pack as lightly as you can. Please bring:

• small daypack for shorter walks
