pack our luggage and proceed for the breakfast. As day sets off, considering the altitude and
acclimatization, we walk slowly towards our next destination. The group will be guided and accompanied
by our trained government licensed guide. Throughout the day, we will take frequent rest breaks to take
photographs, treasure the landscape, confront the culture and admire the fascinating mountains and
sceneries. A 1 to 2 hour relaxing lunch break is usually taken except when crossing the passes. After the
lunch break, we will at least spend 2 to 3 hours more on the trail before reaching the next lodge. Before

you will be briefed for the next day program.
