For hiking
– Good running/hiking shoes (blisters are enemy #1)

– Bottles to carry water. At least 1.5L a day.
– Snacks for the hike (energy bars etc)
– Juice concentrates
– We will have a first aid bag, but it is good to bring a few blister plasters etc just in case.

– Light jacket to hike in if it rains, plastic poncho also does the trick.
– Small towel to take with on the hike and use at the beach.
– Costume for the hike. (Chafe is enemy #2 so carry this rather than wearing it)
– Vaseline/chafe repair- for the above-mentioned reason.
