Vanwege de route door het bos is het van belang dat u zich naderhand controleert op teken. Afhankelijk van het seizoen kunnen er ook muggen zijn, dus een anti insecten spray is aanbevolen.Tips en hints

Uitrusting
Zoals op iedere wandelvakantie is het essentieel dat u beschikt over comfortabele wandelschoenen. Zorg er altijd voor dat u een nieuwe schoen (of laars) inloopt voordat u op wandelvakantie gaat. Wat betreft sokken, het heeft geen zin om geld uit te geven aan goede wandelschoenen als u geld bespaart op de sokken! We raden aan om sokken te dragen van hoge kwaliteit omdat deze de onregelmatigheden in je schoen opvullen.
De temperatuur kan gedurende de dag variëren en het is daarom aan te raden om verschillende lagen kleding te dragen. Bij kou kunnen lagen worden toegevoegd en als u het te warm heeft kunnen lagen worden uitgetrokken. Het is belangrijk een goede winddichte en waterdichte jas te hebben die niet te dik is maar u toch beschermt in geval van harde wind of een regenbui. Wandelstokken worden door steeds meer wandelaars gebruikt en kunnen u tijdens deze wandeltocht ondersteuning bieden.
