We know that your gear can make or break any hike, especially when you’re planning to spend most of your free time outdoors. We created this hiking packing list for several South African hiking trails to help you ensure your hike goes as smoothly and safely as possible. If you have the right hiking gear on hand, you’ll stay warm and dry even if you hit a freak thunderstorm or end up in the middle of a trail in the scorching sun. Check out our recommendations for our favorite hiking gear below!
