Hydrate before you start
Tropical heat and physical effort demand a full hydration pack; guides provide 1L water but carry at least 1.5–2L total.
Expect variable traction
Stretches of loose volcanic sand and wet rock near pools require aggressive but controlled braking—choose a confident tire pressure.
Protect electronics from spray
Bring a dry bag or waterproof phone sleeve for swims and sudden downpours; cameras and phones are vulnerable near basins.
Pace the climbs
E‑assist helps, but conserve battery by using multiple pedal gears on long ascents to avoid overheating the motor.
Hydration pack (1.5–2L)
Keeps you hydrated during long climbs and between supplied water stops.
Sturdy trail shoes
Grip on pedals and protection for short hikes or slips near wet basins.
Light waterproof shell
Tropical squalls can arrive suddenly; a compact rain jacket keeps you dry and warm.
