WHAT SHOULD I WEAR?

It is always a good idea to pack at least 2 pairs of comfortable walking shoes and given the tendency for wet weather, an umbrella and/or some waterproof gear like a trench coat or windbreaker.

In addition, you will need a couple of sweaters and at least a medium-weight jacket or coat.
