Generally you will need a tent which is weatherproof and which has a floor lining made of plastic, which will protect you to an extent from the damp and cold ground. The other necessities would be a sleeping bag, soap, stove or other food preparing materials and insect repellant. If there is a natural source of water nearby make sure to boil the water before drinking or use tablets which purify water. Take proper precautions against wild animals like making sounds by hanging bells or even loud conversation would do.
