There's no need to go to a specialty store

to kit yourself out. Supportive shoes with

a good tread are a must; either light boots

or runners are fine. Dress in light layers so

you can rug up or strip down according to

the weather.

A lightweight backpack should contain

sufficient water, a waterproof jacket,

lunch and snacks. A hat is essential, as is

sunscreen and insect repellent.
