The minimum weight of the backpack (without food and drinks) is 18kg.
During checking, your backpack will be verified for the minimum weight. When you don’t have the minimum, you can add some dead weight (sealed water bottles, bricks,…) to reach the required minimum weight.
Water and food is only added after the initial weight. This ensures that no one is ever below 18kg.
You must have the minimum weight at each CP and the end. Equipment cannot be dropped to optimize the backback.
