How to: Pack Smarter for Multi-day Hikes

The Month of Hiking is back for Spring in Esperance! Down to Earth are hosting a series of short talks to get you excited (and maybe ready) for longer hikes and multi-day adventures.

Packing for a multi-day hike is a balance between carrying what you need and keeping your pack manageable. Drawing on my recent four-day hike on the Larapinta Trail, I’ll work through a practical A–G packing guide and demonstrate what I carried and how I packed it. We’ll look at clothing, sleeping gear, food and water, where different items sit in the pack, managing weight and accessibility along with some of the practical lessons I learnt along the way.
