Tap water is safe to drink but use common sense when drinking water from sources likes lakes or rivers. To protect yourself from Giardia, a water-born parasite that causes diarrhoea, boil, filter or chemically treat water before drinking. You could always pick up a water filter from an outdoor store if you are planning to do a lot of hiking.
