A well-packed daypack is very important for a hiking tour. However, the most important things are those that you don’t even take with you, because even trained persons can only carry about 20-25% of their body weight over a longer period of time.
TIP!
Your daypack should never weigh more than 12 kg.
You should pack the following in your daypack:
- Functional jacket and rain trousers
