If you are visiting Menorca with the idea of hiking, backpacking is an essential aspect that makes outdoor adventures fun and safe.
However, in general, whenever you are backpacking, certain things are mandatory to consider. They include the location (how far or remote it is), the weather forecast, the terrain, and the vehicle. The standard rule is = longer, farther, and rougher the hike is, the more gear, food, water, and clothing you need.
It is good to start your hiking journey in a scooter rather than in a car because bikes are easier to park, easier to rent, and easier to maneuver.

For an Elaborate Overnight Trip, Backpacking Checklist includes:
- Shoes
- Medical kit
- Soap, sanitizer, and other hygiene supplies
- Repair tool kit
- Matchboxes
- Clothing based on the weather
- Watch
- Tent
- Flashlight and batteries
- Repellents and spray
- Sleeping bag
- Kitchen essentials, like stove, gas lighter, fuel
- Food and water (plenty)
- Water purifying treatment
The essentials may change based on the place, camping site, and the number of days of the trip.
Choosing the right backpack is essential. If you are staying overnight or for more than a couple of nights, ideally, you should get a 30 – 50 liter backpack.
Since you cannot survive or hike without food, make sure you store plenty of it. Energy drinks and foods like bars, protein shakes, trail mixes, nuts, jerky, and hard cheese can easily be eaten and carried along. Depending upon the available sources of water to the place you are going, plan your water content. Generally, one must have ½ liter of water in an hour for a medium hike.
