Expect fickle and changeable weather. Bring both dry weather and rain clothing, including a cap or hat, gloves, cold-weather long-sleeve t-shirt (preferably wool), hiking trousers as well as rain trousers and a rain jacket. 

You will need a tent and a sleeping bag for a true hiking experience. For reheating food, you will need LPG or alcohol/gasoline.  

To find your way around, you are required to know how to read maps (maps will be provided by Organizer) and use a compass

For your safety, all participants must be packing a first aid kit

We believe our participants love and cherish nature and all its beauties. We know you wouldn’t litter, so please bring a waste bag.  Littering on and around trails, checkpoints, and mountain lodges are forbidden. Litterers will be disqualified and banned from applying to any future HIGHLANDER events

We are a dog-friendly event, however, there are some things to be considered. Dogs are welcome but must stay on the leash at all times. Track, heath and terrain can be very demanding for dogs.
