Rider protection
What to wear
A helmet is essential on every line. Add more coverage as speed, jumps and technical difficulty increase.
Trail or open-face helmet
A correctly fitted MTB helmet is the minimum. A regular trail helmet — the light “basket” style — works for easier lines; an open-face model gives more coverage around the back and sides of the head. Fasten the chin strap on every ride.
Full-face helmet
Recommended for jump lines, steep descents and advanced terrain. Choose a certified MTB full-face helmet that fits securely and does not obstruct your vision or breathing.
Glasses or goggles
Voghjaberd has strong sun, dust and loose stones. Wear impact-resistant riding glasses or goggles to protect your eyes from glare, branches, dust and flying rocks.
MTB shoes
Avoid soft canvas sneakers. Flat-pedal or clipless MTB shoes with a reinforced toe box, firmer sole and grippy outsole give better protection and control on rocky ground.
SPF 30 or higher
Use broad-spectrum, water-resistant sunscreen on exposed skin, including your face, ears and neck. Apply it about 15 minutes before the ride and reapply every two hours or after heavy sweating.
These equipment notes are general community guidance only. Voghjaberd Trails does not sell or endorse protective equipment.
