Hydration is non-negotiable
Carry at least 2–3 litres in a refillable bottle and top up whenever possible — inland heat and long walks deplete water fast.
Pack a warm sleeping bag for swags
Nights can drop sharply, especially in the Flinders; a 0–5°C rated bag makes swag sleep comfortable.
Sun protection for all days
Wide-brim hat, high-SPF sunscreen and sunglasses are needed for coastal glare and exposed ridgelines.
Bring sturdy boots for conservation work
Volunteering can involve uneven, muddy ground — long pants and ankle-support boots are recommended.
Sleeping bag (0–5°C rating)
Required for use inside the provided swags and for cold desert nights.
