Loadout: 80+ Mile Multi-Day Hike

Here’s an interesting loadout of the basics that Sam uses for his 80+ mile multi-day hikes (he recently covered the West Highland Way, Scotland, in four days!)

This image roughly represents the sort if thing I’d pack for an 80 plus mile multi day hike. On an actual walk, I’d pack a few clothes and a lot more food, but this represents the core of what I’d take. Here’s the list:

Lanacane
Torch
Spare Laces
Pen
Tablet
Gloves
Mint cake
Waterproofs
Ear plugs
Sleep mask
Maps
2 x Socks
Undies
2 x Shirts
2 x Shorts
Safety blanket
Scissors
Plasters
Bog roll
Anti bacteria gel
Hayfever tablets
Wallet
Plastic bag
Headphones
Suncreme
Lunchbox
Water bottle
Phone charger
Deodorant
Scrunchie
Shower gel
Batteries
Toothpaste
Toothbrush
Book

Oh and the thing in the top right corner is a military bum bag. I use that for small fiddly things and also stuff that I’d be getting out a lot like water and maps etc. and the ruck sack I use is a 60L “Tundra” by Blacks.
