Ensuring comprehensive coverage is essential for your well-being and peace of mind during the trek.

4) Code of Conduct: Participants are expected to adhere to a respectful and responsible code of conduct during the trek. The areas you visit may have distinct rules, laws, and beliefs. It is imperative to show respect towards the local religion, customs, and traditions.

During trekking, it’s important to observe small practices that contribute to sustainability. Always carry a steel or copper water bottle to avoid purchasing plastic bottles during the journey. Additionally, bring a tiffin box as we provide packed lunches on some treks. You’ll also receive an eco bag during the trek; use it to collect any plastic waste or wrappers, and please return it to the basecamp at the end of the trek. Your cooperation in maintaining cleanliness and reducing plastic usage is greatly appreciated.
