| 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 |
