Annapurna Panorama Trek Equipment

Annapurna Panorama trek is not difficult on the Nepal trekking path however the trekking equipment is very important before you start this adventure holiday trip.

We Nepal Spirit Adventure highly provide you with a comprehensive list of the required trek equipment for your Annapurna panorama trek as well as clothing your need to bring to cater to both the warmth of the days and the chill of the nights.

While you trek to Annapurna panorama trial, during the day at lower altitudes lightweight trekking trousers and T-shirts are recommended, it’s always a good idea to carry a waterproof jacket and some dry warmer clothing with you as mountain weather is notoriously unpredictable. For cold nights, thermal underwear, a warm fleece jacket, and even a down jacket will help to keep you warm.

Annapurna Panorama Trek Equipments also can find a variety of gears to hire or buy in Kathmandu but time is also important that you may have of not! For your information, you can get all the necessary trek equipment for a short Annapurna view trek in Kathmandu.
