What to pack, equipment/gear
Trekking:
If you are going to do Inca trail, jungle tours or some other trekking you should atleast pack the following things with you:
- Good pair of trekking shoes. Buy them before travelling so you have time to get used to them.
- Tent. Wind and water proof.
- Mosquito net
- Trekking socks, underwear and goretex jacket and trousers. They keep you dry and warm.
- Sleeping bag. Nights can get really cold. New sleeping bags can be really small yet warm.
Other useful things to pack:
- Good guidebook. We recommend Lonely Planet, Rough guides and Footprints.
- Torch.
- Camcorder or digital still camera. A lot to capture in Peru.
- Pair of sport sandals (Tevas)
