In order to plan and prepare your thru-hike a logbook is essential. It will help you to get a better picture of the complete trail and minimizes the risks of surprises. By making a logbook, you will be able to better estimate if your time planning is realistic or not. Do not forget to include any zero days. These are the days you will not be walking, but resting. Also include any expected costs in your logbook, because this enables you to monitor you finances and adjust any plans if needed. Here is an example of the logbook of the Slovenian Mountain Trail.
