Things to wear and carry on your trekking trip in Goa

WEAR PROPER TREKKING SHOES

Trekking is incomplete without shoes having a good grip, so wear the ones in which you will be able to handle some of the challenging trails Goa has to offer.

WEAR LEECH-PROOF SOCKS

Some of the monsoon trails in Goa are infested with leeches, so it is advised to wear leech-proof socks.

CARRY EXTRA PAIR OF CLOTHES

It is necessary to carry extra clothes to avoid unexpected that you can expect on a trekking trip.

RAINWEAR

This is one of the most important items to carry on a trekking trip to keep yourself dry and warm. You can either carry a raincoat or a poncho.

MINIMAL CAMERA EQUIPMENT

Carry minimal camera equipment to hike light. The best choice is a GoPro since its small, compact and easy to carry around.

FIRST AID KIT

Never know when you will require it, so keep one handy.

DRINKING WATER

Staying hydrated at all times is advisable. Water replenishes fluids lost through sweating, so ensure you carry adequate amount of it.
