In summer or in the sun in winter, it is essential to protect yourself from the sun. To do this, remember to take a sunscreen with a high index (especially in the mountains), sunglasses and a hat, cap…
Water is very important! Remember that water consumption during the hike is essential to avoid dehydration. A good 1L or 2 bottles of 750cl will guarantee you a good shape all along the course. Different types of water bottles exist, choose the quality models (between 15 and 25 euros each).

Clothing: depending on the climate, you will adapt your outfit. Take loose clothing that allows perspiration to filter through (valid in summer and winter). Shoes are the priority for your well-being. Take a size above yours, they must be waterproof (gortex membrane), light and very flexible. Socks are just as important as shoes, so don’t hesitate to choose quality models.

Food: Apart from picnics, the consumption of dried fruits (almonds, cashews, dates, apricots and dried figs) is an additional energy asset in times of reduced diet. A small piece of dark chocolate is always welcome.

Additional equipment: In case of foot injuries or as a prevention, “compeed” dressings are essential. Mosquito repellent lotions, after-dicks and a small emergency kit are essential for the discerning hiker.
