Important Walking and Hiking Information

Clothing
We do order fine weather for all our clients tours, but we can't claim a 100% success rate, so we advise you to bring a good strong waterproof hiking jacket and a pair of waterproof over-trousers preferable with zips in the legs, so they can be pulled on and off without taking your boots off. Skin cream to protect your exposed skin from the sun and wind is a good idea.

Footwear
Your tour will take you over a variety of terrains from tarmac back roads, stony lanes, good footpaths and rocky footpaths. In wet weather some of the footpaths may become muddy. Along the way you may encounter some steep gradients both up and down. A good strong pair a waterproof walking boots with ankle support and good gripping soles are a must. For your own comfort, please make sure they are well worn in. Don't forget your favorite blister remedy. Just in case!

Emergency Precaution
You should arrive at you accommodation around 5pm. As a safety precaution, we ask your accommodation providers to inform us, or the police, if you have not arrived by 8pm. For your part, if for any reason you do not expect to arrive at your accommodation before 8pm, please let your accommodation provider know, all the relevant telephone numbers will be in your information pack. A mobile phone is useful, especially if you are a lone walker!

Insurance
We advise you to take out you own holiday insurance against accidents, injury and cancellation.
