Navigation (map and compass)
Every traveler must bring Map and Compass before heading to adventure activities to find out the direction. It is still quite challenging in Nepal to follow the routes from maps, but in many situations it works. Maps and compass function as your guide in the situation you are traveling alone or traveling without guide.
Sun protection (sunglasses and sunscreen)
Mountaineers reach up to 8848 meters in Nepal and trekkers also reach more than 4000 meters mostly. (Some trekking trails lie on the lower altitude). In this case, having sun glasses and sunscreen protects you from the harmful effects of UV rays. UV rays are more powerful in the mountain region, where the temperature is cool.
Insulation (extra clothing)
Be informed about the weather before you go to any adventure activities. If you go for high altitude trekking or mountaineering in Nepal, it’s better to bring extra clothes always. Sometimes, it feels really hot in day time, when there is sunlight but after its gone, the temperature falls rapidly and even far from minus at night. It’s advantageous to bring windproof jackets, extra woolen hats, warm shocks and others.
