Packing advice from Amigo

Dress in layers for your trekking day

Start with a base layer, add warmth when you stop, and keep a protective outer layer within reach. Keep a dry set for the evening. Ask your guide about the forecast and overnight conditions for your route before choosing your warmer gear.

Keep your daypack ready for the trail

Carry your documents, regular medicines, water, sun care, rain protection, a warm layer and headlamp with you. Put spare clothes and bulky sleeping gear in your main bag. Check transport arrangements for sharp tools and any restricted equipment.

Plan for altitude before you travel

Prepare for altitude as well as packing your warm layers. Speak with a qualified clinician before altitude travel, and review acclimatization and emergency plans with your guide. Follow qualified advice for prescription medicines and oxygen systems. Read the CDC’s altitude travel advice

Check flight baggage and battery rules

Keep power banks and spare lithium batteries in your cabin bag with the terminals protected. Check each airline’s current limits on capacity, quantity and use, including domestic flights. Use your confirmed baggage allowance when you check your packing weight. Read IATA’s dangerous goods guidance

Talk to us before buying or renting gear

Ask our team what your package includes and what you need to arrange. Inspect rented gear and try it on before leaving. Check boot fit and technical equipment compatibility with your guide. For religious visits, pack clothing that covers shoulders and knees and follow local dress and photography rules.

Your trekking and travel packing questions

What should I pack for the Everest Base Camp trek?

Start with the Everest Base Camp preset and choose your travel month. Pack layers, an insulated jacket, trekking boots you have worn in, rain protection and a headlamp. Check your sleeping bag against the overnight conditions and lodge bedding. Our team can help you review the list for your departure. Ask your guide about trail traction if snow or ice is expected; an ordinary base camp trek does not call for technical climbing gear.

What should I pack for Annapurna Base Camp?

Choose the Annapurna Base Camp preset, then check the duration and overnight stops against your booking. Bring layers, walking gear and rain protection suited to your travel month. Adjust clothing quantities to the chances you will have to wash and dry them. Ask our team about snow, rain and lodge bedding for your departure before choosing your sleeping bag and warmer layers.

What should I pack for a Tibet or Bhutan cultural tour?

Start with travel documents, comfortable walking shoes and clothes suited to your itinerary. Bring clothing that covers your shoulders and knees for temples and monasteries. For Tibet, check the warmth you need for plateau conditions and discuss altitude preparation before travel. The cultural tour setting leaves out climbing equipment; choose a climbing activity if your itinerary includes one.

Can I use this list for Island Peak or an Everest expedition?

You can use a climbing profile to start your packing conversation with our team. Your leader’s equipment list will confirm the technical specifications, quantities, fit, compatibility and training for the route. For an Everest expedition, go through the specialist high-altitude gear and the operator’s medical, oxygen and rescue arrangements with your expedition leader before departure.

Can I rent trekking gear from Amigo?

Ask our team about the items marked as rental options before you buy or hire. Availability, sizes, condition and cost depend on the equipment and your departure. Check your booking for included gear and luggage support, and try rented equipment before setting off.

How do I save, print or share my packing list?

Your checklist saves in this browser when local storage is available. You can download a CSV or choose Print / Save as PDF for the full list. A settings link shares your trip choices, but leaves out packed items, personal additions and personal-care preferences. The email option opens your own email app and lets you choose whether to include personal additions.

How should I adjust my Nepal trekking packing list for the season?

Choose your travel month, then check the expected conditions with our team. Keep rain protection and dry storage in mind for wet periods, and review warmer layers and sleeping gear for cold departures. Conditions vary between regions and overnight stops, so use your confirmed itinerary and local advice when you finish packing.

How much luggage can I take on my trek?

Check the allowance for each flight and the load agreed with your porter or other luggage support. This tool does not assume an allowance. Enter your confirmed limits in the weight section, weigh your own gear, and add filled water, food and the bags themselves. Keep what you need during the day in your daypack.
