      Comments and explanations


      All obligatory equipment must be carried by the participant all the way from start to finish.


      The backpack must have reflective marks, for you to be seen in the dark when crossing or following roads.


      It is not mandatory to dress such that the legs are completely covered. The point here is that you bring sufficient clothing to attain complete coverage, should this be necessary.


      If you are using the mobile phone for navigation: Beware that the routes are entering areas without service.


      You need to carry a power bank and spare batteries with sufficient capacity to support the telephone and other equipment requiring electricity (GPS unit, headlamp, etc.).


      You have to bring your own cup, for use on the service stations.
