You will definitely need a lot of water. Whether you can fast for 20 days depends on how you define the word "fast" and how much you currently weigh.
If you mean eat NOTHING then I strongly suggest you rethink this. While many Americans can fast 20 days and live, you lose valuable muscle as well as fat when you fast. You release toxins into your body. You will feel weak, dizzy. What if you faint and there is no one nearby to help you?
You don't have to fast to pray.

You have to take something with you to keep you hydrated. Why in the world do you want to do such a thing? Praying for 20 days in the mountains is a wonderful thing if it will help whatever is bothering you. Think twice about the fasting or at least be very careful.

go in the mountains...but take water and some form of food. nuts, dried fruits.....
your body needs nutrients...and fuel....
enjoy the praying.....
be well
