Different Grade of Trekking |
a) Easy
Easy trekking, by Himalayan standards is generally between 900m and 2,000m. There are always plenty of 'ups & downs' everywhere in the Himalaya and clients need to be regular walkers to get full enjoyment from their experience. It is possible however to design 'easier' three to four day treks with perhaps only three to four hours walking per day on request
b) Moderate
Moderate trekking 900m & 4,000m involving side trips to higher elevations. Some treks included here will, in part, be well away from villages on ill-defined mountain trails. O:P c) Strenuous Treks of a demanding nature, requiring all participants to be very fit and in very good health, often in remote alpine areas and sometimes reaching altitudes in excess of 5,000m while crossing mountain passes. |
