Hi there, it would depend on what the weather forecast is going to be like and what specific activities you have have planned. but it may be a good idea to pack one pair of shoes which are sturdy and comfortable for lots of walking which are waterproof. Have a look at this article for some suggestions for hiking shoes: https://www.travelfashiongirl.com/best-hiking-shoes-for-women/ Hope this helps. 🙂

Thanks for this super helpful info! I’m 4’11 and wondering if I should get my own kid-size trekking poles for the trek in Bwindi in Uganda? I’m wondering if the ones they have will be so tall they’ll be kinda bulky for me?
