Hmmm, it still seems like too much clothing. Also did you consider a portable bidet instead of toilet paper. I found I prefered that when doing the Colorado Trail last year.
I think I could have gotten away with a 45-50 liter pack but I used a 65liter as I was using that as my luggage for the rest of my travels. However, I had a lot of extra space!
Hi Michael. We were both carrying fairly large bags ~ 60 L as we were using those traveling. I think you could get away with a smaller bag for this trek, perhaps 45L if you packed light
We brought large ones (~60 liters) that we were using on our around the world trip, however, this size was overkill for the trek. If you sleep and eat in the guest houses you should be fine with something much smaller probably around 40 liters would be fine depending on how light you pack.
This is so helpful thank you!!!
So glad you found it helpful! Do you plan to do the trek soon!?
Thank you for the content, very useful 🙏. I would like to ask how many kilos Liz's backpack weighed.
Thanks for watching! Liz’s bag weighed about 13 kilos, but I think that did not include water. So, with water maybe 16 kilos.

I'm interested in the first aid kit you have, where did you buy that from!?
Hi Madeline! We bought the organizer on Amazon and filled it in with meds etc. Here is the link! amzn.to/3Oa0Z0d
Thanks for your reply :) I'm doing three passes in October and your videos were very helpful!
Thank you for the video! What should be the size of the bag?

@@PursuingMountains Thank you!
Hi, this video was super helpful! Could I ask what size bag you were carrying? Thanks x

what backpack size did you use? 50 L ?
I think you can get away with a 50L. I had a 65L because it served also as my luggage on my travels but there was extra space on this trek for sure!
What size of day pack do you bring?
