List of hiking equipment in Tibet

Lead: Tibet is located in the plateau, and its climate and environment are very different from those in the plain. Traveling to Tibet requires different equipment according to everyone's specific situation, but whether you are going on a long hike or going on a pilgrimage to the mountains, there are five kinds of equipment that are essential for every donkey friend who goes to Tibet.

Tibet hiking equipment list 1. Backpack and rain cover

Backpacks are generally more than 65 liters for men and 45 liters for women. They can be equipped with a small bag of 15 liters, or even better, a purse, which is convenient for storing some small things. In addition, since summer is the rainy season, it is recommended to equip the backpack with a rain cover.

2. Sleeping bag

If you travel to Tibetan areas in summer and don't plan to go to some remote areas, ordinary cotton sleeping bags (80- 100 yuan) are enough, mainly to prevent dirt. If you are not afraid of dirt, you can live without it. If you travel in winter, even in several big cities in Tibet, you should bring a sleeping bag. In several backpacker hotels in Lhasa, such as Balangxue, Jiri and Ya, ordinary rooms have no heating in winter, and they don't need sleeping bags, just quilts provided by the hotel, which may be frozen in the middle of the night. In winter, it is necessary to go to Ali, the grassland in northern Tibet and the Qinghai-Tibet line, even if there is no camping. If the sleeping bag used in winter is not for camping, a duck down sleeping bag with a comfortable temperature scale of minus 10 degree1000g is enough. If camping in the wild, it is best to have a sleeping bag. The comfortable temperature scale is MINUS 20 degrees, which is not easy to penetrate.

3. Sunglasses

What's the name of Lhasa? City of sunshine? The sun is very strong. In order to protect your eyes, you'd better take a pair of sunglasses with ultraviolet protection. Even if you go to other places in Tibet, you'd better wear sunglasses. After all, it is a plateau area. On a sunny day, strong ultraviolet radiation is no joke.

4. jacket

Even if you travel to Tibet in summer, it is recommended to take a coat. There is a great temperature difference between morning and evening in Tibet, especially in rainy season. It often rains in the afternoon and evening, sometimes for hours on end. Putting on a coat before going out can effectively protect your belongings from the rain and keep warm.

5. Highly anti-drug &; Health products

Everyone's physique is different, and the degree of altitude sickness is also different. Some people don't even have altitude sickness, but as long as you go to Tibet, it is necessary to take some medicine to deal with altitude sickness, especially if you are not sure whether you will have altitude sickness. Drugs for altitude sickness such as Gao Yu Anan and Bai Funing are even more essential. In addition, Ma Yong Niuma vegetable juice can rapidly increase human oxygen content, relieve altitude sickness and replenish physical strength. It is also necessary to go to the plateau.

No matter how you plan to go to Tibet, remember to bring these five pieces of equipment!
