- SPECIFIC ADVICE:
Habitual precautions common to hiking in general are listed below. At the risk of sounding obvious, here are some of the most important:
- Check weather forecasts before setting off to hike.
- Don´t go alone
- Tell someone your intended destination and expected time of arrival
- Carry a small rucksack with warm clothing, waterproofs, food and plenty of water.
- Don´t forget such simple items as: sun hat, protective cream and sun glasses

- Wear suitable gear, especially footwear: trekking boots or similar are essential, trainers or pumps are to be avoided.
