A variety of cereals, bread, and eggs dishes are generally available for breakfast.
Safe Drinking Water in Trekking
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). Natural spring water is free but requires cleaning adding purification pills or filters. Besides this, if you wish to drink sealed packed mineral and boiled water you can buy en route at extra cost will be charged $1-2 dollars per litter.
Health & Fitness Required
Health and physical fitness is the most important part of travel and in participating for trek and hiking in the high altitude zone. 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 on the trek chosen, most of the trek is nontechnical effort walks.
The highest height gain on this trip at 5,360m/17,585ft above sea level, the walk involves lots of ups and down, walking through local villages, farmlands, terraces, and 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.

High Altitude Sickness
Altitude sickness often known as acute mountain sickness (A.M.S.) in general may occur when people ascend too quickly normally in altitudes of over 3000 m. Most people will feel some effect of altitude, shortness of breath, and possibly light-headedness, which is fairly common. Acute mountain sickness is very different and normally involves a severe headache, sickness, and loss of awareness. In almost every potential case there are enough warning signs to take appropriate action. When symptoms of altitude sickness develop, please tell your trekking guide. He will advise you to deal with your problem. Generally over exertion and dehydration contribute to altitude sickness. So drink at least 3-4 liters of water every day besides tea and coffee which act as diuretics.
