Hi. I am new to the Great Walks tracks. Is 45L pack enough for 3N4D Kepler Track? I booked huts for three nights in the mid of February. I guess I can make it since I do not need a tent and other camping gears, but I need an advice. Cheers!

Hi there was a fire place in each hut. These are used both for warmth and to dry some clothing. There are often many people in a hut with wet clothes so this can take a while. It was not cold enough when we walked the track to light a fire. I use a down sleeping bag, they work well for me as I feet the cold. A sleeping bag liner helps too and keeps the sleeping bag clean. It would pay to spend some time doing a bit of research to get the best one for you. It is a wonderful hike, hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
