Packing for a Northern Pakistan trek requires careful planning. Start with a good quality 50–70 litre backpack. Clothing should be layered: a moisture-wicking base layer, an insulating fleece or down jacket, and a waterproof outer shell. Sturdy trekking boots with ankle support are non-negotiable. Don't forget a warm hat, gloves, sunscreen (SPF 50+), sunglasses, a headlamp, and a reusable water bottle with purification tablets. Most importantly, pack light — every kilogram counts on multi-day treks.
