We would like to give you a few notes on the 4 most famous routes:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>In spring\/summer the best choice are trekking shoes.<\/li><li>In cold and wet seasons, hiking boots.<\/li><\/ul>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You must carry:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Used (but not worn out) footwear. It is not a good idea to experiment when your path will depend largely on your feet.<\/li><li>Avoid internal seams. Whether in socks, boots or slippers.<\/li><li>Wear the foot snug (but not tight). With loose shoes you are likely to get blisters and chafing on your feet.<\/li><li>Cushioned sole with the heel slightly higher than the toe to reduce the possibility of muscle overload.<\/li><li>Apply cold at the end of the stage to lower the temperature of the feet (blisters) and speed up muscle recovery. You can&#8217;t imagine how much it helps to put your feet and legs in ice or water.<\/li><li>cold at the end of each journey. In many places you will find natural or public rivers.
