Fleece blouse 200 - 1 unit
Fleece is a type of fabric with high warmth, low weight, and good compression. If you want to invest in an even lighter and more compressible material, but much more expensive, opt for goose down jackets. But be careful! There are several types of down jackets, and many are NOT SUITABLE FOR OUTDOOR SPORTS. For more information, contact our team. If you DO NOT want to invest, it can be replaced by a regular sweatshirt, but this is highly NOT recommended because it is heavier, bulkier, and slow-drying if it gets wet.
This is the most important item in your backpack. It can literally save your life, as it will protect you from hypothermia. It must have a hood, be water-resistant, and preferably breathable, meaning it allows sweat to escape without letting rainwater in. A regular raincoat is NOT recommended, but can be substituted.
-
Approach footwear - 1 unit
Ideally, the boot should be specifically designed for mountaineering, with a good sole (ideally Vibram® ), high-top design, water resistance, and preferably a breathable Gore-Tex® membrane. Since the trails in sport climbing areas vary from extremely short to very short (maximum 25 minutes), wearing regular sneakers isn't a problem, but it's NOT RECOMMENDED.
-
Thin liner stockings - 1 unit
Opt for technical socks specifically designed for mountaineering. They should be highly breathable, which helps to minimize contact between your foot and sweat, one of the three factors that cause blisters.
-
Bandana / expedition-style cap / hat - 1 unit
Opt for a bandana as it's much more versatile and can withstand extreme environmental conditions.
An essential item to make your trip more comfortable. Radiation at altitude is higher than at sea level, so protect yourself!

ACCESSORIES
For a one-day trip, it's not necessary to have a backpack with a capacity greater than 40L. If possible, opt for models that are compatible with Camelbaks.
-
Backpack rain cover - 1 unit
Having more freedom of movement is not only more comfortable but also a matter of safety, especially if you have to navigate a more technical section with low light. On some climbing trips, we might have to do the return trail at night (unplanned). If you insist on not investing in this item, it can even be replaced by a cell phone flashlight, but THIS IS NOT RECOMMENDED.
