In addition water、Energy snacks, to save you some time doing research on the best daily hiking equipment or camping things. I did the quick research in Amazon and think it would help!

4-1 Headlamp

We had the experiences to walk in the dark of forecast. The worse, one friend fall down on the road because of dark. So I listed headlamp to the 1st list to check. It would be more comfort to walk in the dark road and no worry about phone flashlight is run out the battery.

4-3 Hiking shoes

Even for a simple day hike to hard many days hike, I would suggest to need a comfortable pair of hiking boots that can survive slippery trails or high elevation gain trails.
