Walking Gear for the Wales Coast Path

For day walks, you’ll need a small 30-40 litre backpack, waterproof walking boots, layered clothing to include a wicking base layer, warm mid layer and waterproof top layer, shorts or walking trousers, waterproof over trousers and a hat. Don’t forget food, water and snacks, a hat, sunscreen, sunglasses and a small first aid kit. A guidebook, map, mobile phone and camera complete the basic list. And, for wildlife watchers, a lightweight pair of binoculars.
