Also, bring money and your mobile phone, fully charged. Now, on your backpack:
>Water
Knowing that there are no fountains or streams, carry at least 3 liters of fresh water. I dare to say that you should try to bring even more, 5 or 6. Carry it the way you want. Water canteen, camelback...The easiest way is one or two liters plastic bottles. Do not be afraid to bring 5 or 6 liters.
>Food
Apples and oranges (fruits in general), those will help you to hidrate and obtain a small but quick amount of energy. Curated meat, cheese and bread, make sandwiches so you don't have to stop for cooking. If you wanna cook, bring an alcohol/gas stove and canned food (or a small pot for boiling soup/stew); be wary, this is extra weigh. Sweets like gummy bears and peanuts will give you energy, but also make you thirsty. How many? I don't know, I would bring at least food enough for one day.
>Spare clothes
Said before, an extra pair of socks, another shirt or t shirt and another briefs. It's summer, but just in case, put them on a closed plastic bag, the minimum to protect them from possible rains.
>Medkit
Something easy to use. At least bandage and desinfectant(alcohol) for cuts and bleeding. Medical tape for the blisters and the bandages. Some medicines like ibuprofen for possible pains. Learn how to use them.
>Map (and possibly a compass)
I am sure you already know the way, but in case you get lost or slow and night hits on, map will help you find nearest place to get help or take cover. Use your smartphone, but paper map and compass will always work because those don't use batteries. Learn to navigate land.
>Flashlight with spare battery
Anything, ideally some headlamp because it will let you hands free.
>Rain jacket
Just in case. A light one, no need for a winter jacket. If no rain, you can use it for cutting wind or as an improvised blanket.
>Paper towel/wipes
Keep your arse clean.
>Sun-protecting lotion
30º protection is enough unless you are a pale one.
