Special Tip
Carry a bottle of water, some protein bars, and snacks to keep you fueled. The trail is rocky and steep, so try to wear sturdy trekking shoes with strong grip. When going on a hike through the forest, bring a wooden stick with you to help you navigate any obstructions. Maintain order in the natural world. Don't dump any trash outside. Keep the area tidy for our upcoming fellow hikers if you intend to bring snacks and carry the used wrappers.
