What to Bring on your Mount Fansipan Hike

• Rain jacket or poncho – The weather on Fansipan is finicky so you may encounter rain. Here is what we use: men/women.
• Daypack – We love our Osprey backpacks. Here are our favorite men and women backpacks that we use.
• Water and snacks – Here is our favoritereusable water bottle so you can reduce your plastic waste. Snacks will be helpful to help refuel during your hike.
• Headlamp – Since we started at 5:30am, it was pitch black outside. Headlamps are a lifesaver and you’ll be hands-free. We love and use these headlamps.
• Sun hat – Cover your head and face with this hat.
• Sunglasses – Here are our favorite sunglasses for hiking!
• Sunscreen – Even though the weather is foggy at the top of the mountain, the sun still shines through. We regretfully forgot to put sunscreen on and our faces were sunburned.
• Hiking poles – These would be helpful or you can find a bamboo stick along the route.
• Cash – In case you want to get a snack or something to eat at Fansipan Legend.
• Trash bag – Please remember the “pack in, pack out” mentality, and bring your trash with you back to your hotel. We saw some trash such as plastic water bottles and candy wrappers along the trail.
• Mask – If you decide to take a cable car, visitors need to wear a mask.

What to Wear on your Fansipan Climb

• Technical t-shirt or long-sleeve shirt – Any moisture-wicking shirt will do. Your body will heat up as you climb up Fansipan.
• Hiking pants – Long pants are a must as there are overgrown plants and shrubs.
• Jacket – Any windbreaker type jacket will be great. We used our Patagonia Houdini jackets during the windy areas.
• Hiking boots – It’s recommended to wear hiking boots since the trail is rocky and can be muddy. We use these hiking boots (men/women). We saw some hikers wearing sandals and walking shoes, so it is doable.
• Hiking socks
