Mixture of road and dirt path touring

Not sure if this is the correct forum for this but here goes...

I'm off on a 120 mile round trip cycle along roads and riverside paths and some dirt tracks and so plan to fit suitable tyres on my racked-up cyclocross bike (which usually I use for road commuting). For tyres I'm thinking Contintional Country Plus and for tubes Continental Tour 28 all for my 700c wheels (Mavic Aksiums). Will I be okay with that tyre/tube combination? If so, should I go for the 37mm or 42mm tyre? Would there be much benefit from a wider tyre (assuming it'll work with my wheels)?

Excuse the newbie questions
