Yeotown Packing List
Dress code:
Casual/ Informal
Yeotown has a relaxed atmosphere so we encourage you to dress in casual, comfortable clothing throughout your stay,*
What to bring:
For Hiking Sessions :
- Waterproof Hiking Boots or Shoes
- Wellington Boots (optional)
- Hiking trousers/ shorts – Polycotton or artificial fibre trousers – not jeans or corduroy, we recommend Craighoppers Trousers
- Thick Socks (comfortable with your boots)
- Waterproof jacket and trousers – Preferably with a hood/ waterproof hat.
- Breathable materials such as Sympatex or Goretex will feel more comfortable.
- Fleece or similar warm layer such as a merino base layer.
- Warm hat and gloves (cold weather)
- Sunhat, sunglasses and sunscreen
- Rucksack (Big enough to carry waterproofs, essential medication, water, camera, extra socks)
- Water bladder or hydration pack for your rucksack
- Water bottle 1litre
- A Compeed range of blister treatment plasters
- iPod (optional)
- Nail trimmers (optional)
- Small Camera (optional)
- Hiking poles (optional)
Please pack appropriately for the time of year you are coming. Layers of light clothing are better than one thick layer. Warmth is created by trapping air and heating it. The multiple-layer system allows you to add or remove layers as conditions dictate. The base layer, closest to your skin, should allow you to sweat without becoming wet. This dispersal of sweat/moisture is called wicking and is best performed by thermal or technical fabrics. Fleece is an ideal intermediate layer. The outer or “shell” layer should be windproof and waterproof with breathable fabrics being preferred.
For Cycling Sessions :
- Padded cycling shorts/leggings and trainers.
- Gloves to protect against vibration and chill
- Glasses or sunglasses to protect against bugs
For Yoga Sessions:
- Comfortable loose clothing you can stretch/sweat in – mats/straps/blocks will be supplied
For Fitness Sessions

- Trainers (If you are using trainers to hike in you will need another dry pair for the afternoon training session)
- Water bottle
