The most recommendable shoes are the so called “trekking boots”: a generic name given to the mountain boots with a soft or semi rigid materials. These are more relaxing for long hours of trekking.

Generally, the path boot should have a stretched mark sole to allow a good adherence, with a rubber not so hard, somehow rigid and with the good outline, over the ankle and they should transpire well having besides a certain grade of waterproof. It is important to tie the shoelaces very well, without excessively pressing the feet and readjustment should be made when going downwards.
