Do you need to wear full walking boots when treking in La Gomera?

Question

I am due to go to La Gomera and will be doing a certain amount of walking but don't know whether to use my purpose walking sandals or my leather boots given that the temperature will be close to 30 degrees. Anyone got suggestions?

Answer 1

Wow, lucky you, I've never been but it looks fab.  My only suggestion is to wear your boots and carry the sandals as they are light, then if you find it is suitable and your feet need a "breather" you can swop over.  Looking at the terrain I think you might need the boots anyway.

Enjoy!
