Also, if you have one, please remember to bring your ICE card with you. Or, if you don’t have one, a note of your proposed emergency contact name and number will be required in case of emergency.

As conditions underfoot can vary, stout walking shoes/ boots, gaiters and walking poles, if you use them, are recommended.
