Safe drinking water is very important while we are on trek and we recommend that one should drink at least 3-4 liters of water a day (this helps from de-hydration and altitude problem AMS). We provide filtered clean water and add purification pills to our entire trip package, besides this, if you wish to drink sealed packed mineral and boiled water you can buy it en route at extra cost which costs each $1-2 dollars.

Health and physical fitness is the most important part of travel and participating in trek and hiking. If you do not have previous trekking experience as required, you can start with a morning walking exercise or cycling for weeks or months before/after booking the trip with us, if you have previous trekking and climbing experience it will add a plus point to the trek chosen, most of the trek is nontechnical effort walks. The highest height gain on this trip is at 5,545m above sea level, the walk involves lots of ups and down, walking through local villages, farmlands, terraces, and the riverside as long as you have energy walking for 4- 6 hours a day, and if you are qualified for the trek but still requires moderate health and fitness.
