Clothing
I wore lightweight, moisture-wicking shirts each day and was so glad I did. They dried fast, didn’t cling, and kept me as cool as possible walking 50km in full sun

I wore moisture-wicking socks designed for long-distance walking. They definitely helped, but I still ended up with blisters—so don’t rely on socks alone. I recommend rotating pairs during the day and packing extras just in case.
Socks
These held up really well over all 200km. My husband didn’t have major blister issues and said they stayed comfortable, dry, and in place all day. Definitely a solid choice if you’re walking long distances.

Shoes
These held up through all 200km—hot pavement, hills, rain, and long stretches with tired feet. I broke them in well beforehand, and while they didn’t stop the blisters entirely, they gave me the support and stability I needed every day.
Brooks Running Shoes, Gear, and Apparel for Men & Women
My husband wore hiking shoes, and honestly, they were a smart choice—tons of walkers did the same. They offered more grip and support than typical tennis shoes, especially on uneven stretches, and held up great over the full 200km.

Gear
Both my husband and I used black CamelBaks, and they were total lifesavers. Easy to drink from on the move, held just enough gear without being bulky, and the black color hid all the dirt and sweat by day four. Highly recommend for hands-free hydrati...

This was the perfect spot for our control cards and phone—easy to access at every checkpoint without digging through my backpack. Super convenient for quick snacks, tissues, and anything I needed fast while walking.
Waist & Fanny Packs
An absolute essential. Between tracking steps, using maps, and taking photos, my phone battery didn’t stand a chance. This kept both my phone and watch charged all day.
Anker MagGo Powerbank (10.000mAh, 35W, für Apple Watch)
These were a must after the march. By the end of each day, we were dealing with hot spots and full-on blisters. Having a good stock of bandages (especially blister-specific ones) made a huge difference in recovery and surviving the next day.

Snacks
We packed a few different flavors of these and they were very yummy—even after several days of walking. Easy to eat on the go, didn’t melt in the heat, and gave us a quick boost when we needed it most.
NUSSYY
These were great when we needed quick energy between breaks. Easy to carry, tasted way better than expected, and gave a noticeable boost without the crash. We kept a few in our pockets each day—lifesavers during those final kilometers.
PowerGel Shots | Orange | 4 Packungen (4 x 60g) | 12450691.4
A perfect mix of sweet and energizing without being heavy. These were easy to pack, didn’t melt or crumble, and gave us a nice little boost between control points. One of the snacks we actually looked forward to eating each day.
