Expect dry and sunny weather with low humidity and colder nights. Bring both dry weather and rain clothing, including a cap or hat, gloves, cold-weather long-sleeve t-shirt (preferably wool), hiking pants as well as rain pants and a rain jacket.

For reheating food, you will need LPG or alcohol/gasoline.

To find your way around, you must know how to read maps (to be provided by the 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 beauty. We know you wouldn’t litter, so please bring a waste bag for your litter.

Littering on and around trails, checkpoints, and mountain lodges is forbidden. Litterers will be disqualified and banned from applying to any future HIGHLANDER events.

Dogs are welcome but must always stay on a leash. See the Rules for more info.
