Start with layers
Temperatures drop on exposed ridgelines; pack a warm midlayer and a windproof shell.
Bring 1–2 liters of water
There are no reliable water sources on the route—hydrate before and carry water for the full 4 hours.
Use rigid-soled footwear
Volcanic rock and uneven ancient paths are easier on boots with a rigid sole and good grip.
Plan for changing weather
Morning fog can give way to strong wind; check forecasts and keep a compact rain jacket handy.
Hiking boots (rigid sole)
