How to prepare for a hiking trip
Get shoes that fit around the ankle comfortably but have room for toes to move and bend.
Buy foot pads and foot care products and keep them in good condition.
Get some rain gear.

Choices: *Usually a raincoat is preferred over an umbrella as it is too unreliable and delicate. Get a large backpack (ask for a hiking backpack) and some waterproof bags as well. *On days when snow comes, a kettle should be big enough for you to sit in. Pack hiking boots, ready-made first'. *If you're going to be camping you need snowshoes, a rain helmet, ski boots, and snow pants. Pack toiletries such as toothbrush, hair wax, etc. *( togs don't work! It seems cheaper. ) When hiking or climbing (except going on long trails) get knee pads, boots, bug nets, lightweight mattress shapers, even socks.
