It's important to know
Personal equipment you need for the tour
Our winter sportswear is well suited to the climatic conditions during most of our travels. Thermal underwear, wind and waterproof clothing, and rubber boots will become a reliable foundation for your comfort in the polar regions.
Layering in clothing is the most important thing in Arctic expeditions. It is better to wear several light garments than one very warm one. This will help you optimally adapt to temperature changes: it is always easier to take off a layer of clothing if you feel hot, or put on something else if it gets chilly.
- The base layer. Choose thermal underwear made of merino wool or polypropylene, depending on the temperature of the region and the planned activity level.
- The middle layer. Wool or fleece sweaters, longsleeves, turtlenecks to create layers of clothing. The middle layers can be worn both under the park on landings and on board the ship.
- The top layer. Windproof and waterproof parka and trousers. The park can be single-layered (insulated with protection from wind and water) or double-layered (consisting of a warm layer and an upper wind and water protection layer).
- Shoes and accessories. Rubber boots (regular or insulated) are the most suitable option for expeditions. Bring several pairs of gloves/mittens (1 light, 1 warm waterproof, 1 spare), a hat, scarf/ buff, several pairs of warm (for example, wool) and regular socks.
