Clothing

Clothing

Warm, wind and waterproof clothing is essential, including gloves, hat, fully waterproof and windproof jacket and trousers and spare clothing (i.e. extra jumper)

What to wear is dependant on the weather and the terrain

If there is a chance of rain, carry waterproofs

If walking in colder weather consider thermal vest and trousers

Most walkers prefer a thick sock which can be pulled up to the knee

The socks must fit as well as your boot

Gaiters or over trousers should be worn in winter conditions. These will keep legs and feet dry and warm
