What are the things you need to get if you are planning to go on a trek for the first time in a cold place?
Trekking in cold places has a lot more to offer than treks in warmer areas. The scenic beauty is astounding in snowy areas but trekking there could turn out to be tricky. Here are the main essentials you will need to carry with you if you are trekking in a cold place for the first time:
- A heavy layer jacket
- A set of microspikes to have a good hold of the surface while trekking
- A trekking bag of about 40-60 liters to carry all your essentials
- Thermal wear
- Extra layers of warm clothing
- Winter accessories like gloves, caps, scarves, etc.
- Waterproof clothing layer or a raincoat along with gloves
- Several pairs of warm woolen socks
- Medical kit
