Clothing and essentials Bring layers, a windproof and rainproof outer shell, and footwear suited to walking. Keep documents, personal essentials and charging equipment in your carry-on, with a small reserve of important supplies.

Camera equipment Choose lenses for your photographic interests instead of carrying every item. Check cameras, cards and batteries in advance. Pack a rain cover, lens cloth and a manageable support system. Match the weight of long lenses and bags to the walking route.

Backups and transfers Review images daily and keep at least two independent copies. Airline rules for batteries and cabin baggage vary, so check with your carrier before departure. Accommodation and transfers follow the confirmed itinerary.
