2027 For Rangers Ultra Kit List
All items below must be worn or carried in your Race Bag on every stage. You will not be permitted to start or continue without them. These items must not be moved into your Drop Bag or Travel Bag.
The For Rangers Ultra is a fast and light race. Your sleeping bag, race food and camp kit travel ahead to camp in your Drop Bag, so you only carry what you need to move safely through the conservancies each day. Water is available at every checkpoint and at camp.
Hand over your Drop Bag at base camp at Lewa before Stage 1. It travels by truck to each camp and will be waiting for you when you finish every stage. Items marked Mandatory must be in your Drop Bag. The rest are suggestions.
Pack your sleeping bag, your race food and anything you need overnight. Food is not provided during the race, other than the celebration meal at the finish. Hot water is available at camp morning and night, so dehydrated meals are a good option. Only pack non-perishable food, as Drop Bags travel and sit in the heat during the day.
Your Drop Bag must be waterproof, or fully lined with a waterproof liner or dry bag, to protect your sleeping bag and kit from rain and dust while it travels between camps.
Your Travel Bag is your main luggage, for anything you need before and after the race. Hand it over at base camp at Lewa. It is stored securely during the race and reunited with you at the finish at Ol Pejeta. You won't have access to it during the race.
These items are not mandatory and are not checked at kit check. They are extras our team rates for the For Rangers Ultra.
