Acclimatization
However, it could be challenging for some due to the high elevation. All of Himai holidays treks are planned with high degree of awareness of AMS (Acute Mountain Sickness). Going up at higher altitude too fast causes a medical condition serious enough to kill. We understand that for a safe trek, it is essential to allow sufficient time for acclimatization. Sensible planning is therefore required to minimize the risk of AMS. Himali holidays 's itineraries are designed to prevent AMS as much as possible. But, it is important to remember that some visitors are more vulnerable than others.
Physical Condition & Experience Requirements
This trek entails a couple of days in high elevations, walking for long hours and 6-12 hours of driving per day in some days. The trek itself is not difficult. However, it could be challenging due to high elevation. Therefore being physically fit is highly recommended. It is also advised that we consult our doctor prior to the excursion and obtain necessary advice, as well as medications for traveling in extreme altitude.
