About The Trek
This is a trek program that gives deeper interaction with the locals and their life styles. A proper acclimation is done by sightseeing and visits by car and foot for several days before the trek. Somehow, during the trekking days also we visit to Monasteries and villages very often, which makes this trekking trip more of an cultural trek unlike any other hardcore Himalayan trek where no. of walking days and remoteness are more with less signs of human habitations for several days.
