FAQs
This is my First Trek, Am i able to do it ?
Yes! Anyone with basic fitness to walk 2 to 5kms can do this trek, one can start going for 2kms walks one week prior to the trek help them while trekking, surprisingly 80% of the people who
have done this trek with us so far are beginners.
What if there is any Wildlife encounter during the trek ?
There are very less chances of encountering any wildlife during the trek, even if we encounter
any wildlife we just stop and maintain a distance so that animal can leave safely, all of our teammates are trained and worked with wildlife.
How cold it will be during the Night at the Campsite ?
The temperatures during the Winter months November, December and January will be in single digits that's why we recommend people to carry three layers of clothing, we also carry sleeping bags if anyone needed.
