There are two reasons to prepare for hiking. Either you are just starting back into hiking and need to get going or you are training for a big backpacking trek. Both needs have similar preparatory guidelines, with the backpacking event needing a bit more focus. More information about backpacking can be found at this Backpacking site.
For sure layered clothing with good lightweight rain gear including a pack cover.
Make a list of everything you’re taking.
Boots that fit your feet, low and high top gaiters, lots of gloves, earbands, extra sunglasses, water purifier, first aid stuff including skin care, sunscreen & repellents … little things, write them down, don’t forget them.
Try to get in two dry runs before you leave to see how everything packs, have a blast.
