The Romanian trek leader is assisted by a Romanian support driver. Both are well qualified mountaineers and English speaking. Equipment, weather and clothes If you are already a hiker or backpacker you will have much of the clothing and equipment necessary. Good, waterproof boots with ankle supports are essential as are warm clothing and waterproofs. Mountain weather is variable.
Conditions are generally warm at lower altitudes and light clothing is adequate.
However warm, windproof and waterproof clothing is needed for higher level walking where it is possible to encounter misty, wet and cold conditions. You will need a day sack and a soft 'sports' bag for your main baggage. The day sack should be large enough for you to carry a small amount of overnight gear for nights in the mountain huts which cannot be accessed by the support vehicle. A more detailed equipment list will be sent with confirmation of booking. An emergency medical kit accompanies the trek.
