What to pack?

The Himalayas is an isolated segment of the globe and during trek you will beencountered with long drop toilets or the shrubs so take biodegradable toilet paperwith you. It also gets very chill during night in the hills & teahouses so pack 3-seasonsleeping bag, plenty of layers such as warm hat & gloves, fleece jumpers, long-sleeved t-shirts and not to forget your torch. I’d also recommend a soft pair oftrainers to put on after a day’s hiking t proffer your feet some relief from the trekkingboots.

Ideal time to go:
