Equipment list - Glacier Hikes


Please note that the glacier hikes range from 2 1/2 hours to a full day outing so you might well get away without some of the things on this list.

Essentials
  • Waterproof jacket and pants (We do have rental clothing available)
  • Light sweater, wool or fleece
  • Light synthetic or quick dry pants (Try and stay clear of jeans on the longer trips as they get wet & cold quick and dry slow)
  • Thin Gloves
  • Hat
  • Hiking boots (Available for rental - We advice against runners or any type of shoe that comes up below the ball of your foot as the straps on the crampons can get a bit painful during the walk)

  • Sunglasses and sun protection (It can get quite bright on the ice with the reflection)
  • Food and drinks (For our half day and full day excursions we include a light lunch and drink)
