The trail takes you through rainforest with a high chance of rain, so bring a raincoat. As this is your first day at altitude, we strongly recommend the following: o Avoid caffeine or alcohol. o Drink frequently and gradually, up to a total daily intake of at least 4 liters. o Take Diamox to relieve symptoms of altitude sickness. It is usually taken in the morning before the day's rise. Before you travel, consult your doctor to check for possible contraindications. o Pay attention to your body's warning signs and promptly report any unwanted symptoms to your guide.
