Recommandations: Habitual precautions common to hiking in general are listed below. At the risk of sounding obvious, here are some of the most important:
Check weather forecasts before setting off to hike.
Don´t go alone
Tell someone your intended destination and expected time of arrival
Carry a small rucksack with warm clothing, waterproofs, food and plenty of water.
Don´t forget such simple items as: sun hat, protective cream and sun glasses.
Carry a mobile phone with fully-charged battery, a map and, if possible, a compass. They will probably never be used but, when required, are of vital importance.
Wear suitable gear, especially footwear: trekking boots or similar are essential, trainers or pumps are to be avoided.
Autres remarques: This path is a variant of the PR LP 3 which descends to Mirca to join the GR 130, via which Santa Cruz can be reached. It can be combined in either an uphill or downhill direction with the PR LP 3, PR LP 4.1 (to Tenagua) or the PR LP 4 (to Puntallana) paths.
