Equipment Recommendation

Our team in Äkäskero will ensure that you are provided with the necessary specialized equipment needed for your activities.  For use during your tour we provide the following items:

Warm anorak or Down jacket

Second-skin trousers (over trousers)

Warm winter boots

Warm second-skin Gloves (over Mittens)

Warm fur hats

Sleeping bags

   
         

For the tour itself you should include a few necessary items but, at the same time, make sure your total luggage does not exceed 6 Kg.  The dogs must pull not only the equipment and food, but also the sledge and you – so it is important to keep weight as low as possible.
The following list of items has proven to be a good choice (the items in bold lettering, are available at our Lodge, in good quality and reasonably priced:
Thermos bottle; any necessary medication; for those who wear glasses we recommend contact lenses; a pair of thin and a pair of thick finger gloves; thermal underwear (wool); woollen socks; neck warmer; toilet bag with contents, a small head torch including batteries; a small camera, chemical pocket ‘hand warmer’

Additionally, from March on, sunscreen and sunglasses should also be included.

   
         

For Panarama Tours we recommend also taking along a small sewing set, hand cream and a belt-knife.
