Broken-in hiking footwear
Carry only what you can comfortably take uphill for several days; fit and pack weight matter more than capacity alone.
GEAR FOR YOUR ADVENTURE
Gear for Hut-to-hut hiking
Build a compact overnight kit around footwear, weather protection, navigation and the hut’s own requirements.

START WITH THE ACTIVITY
Your practical kit checklist
Use this as a starting point, then adapt it to your route, season, accommodation and organiser requirements.
Layered clothing and rain protection
Pack a waterproof layer and warm layer where you can reach them without emptying your bag.
Suitable pack, water and navigation
Check whether your huts require a sleeping-bag liner, indoor shoes, cash or specific bedding.
CHOOSE WITH PURPOSE
Buy only what you actually need
Start with what you already own and test it on a similar training session or walking day. Fit, conditions and your stage plan matter more than a brand or price.
Check the current requirements
Kit lists, permitted equipment and conditions can change. Use the official information for your route or edition before travelling or buying anything.
