Know Before You Go

Climbers are reminded that there is a 15 kg limit on personal luggage for all climbs.

Cameras, whether video or film, needed to be protected against the severe cold either in a warm pouch or the interior pockets of your clothing. Do not keep your camera in your backpack at higher elevations.

We do not provide donkeys or porters to carry luggage.

No insurance is provided during the trek.

When between camps, please carry your daily personal rubbish to the next camp.

Remember – “Take nothing but photographs, leave nothing but footprints”. So, keep the mountains clean and green.

Aspirins and Paracetamols are highly recommended for headaches and because they also thin the blood that will help improving circulation & oxygen delivery to the body. Strong painkillers are not recommended as they can suppress respiration.

Personal expense of any kind will not be entertained.

Shimla is known as the summer capital of British India and is now the capital of Himachal Pradesh located in the Himalayan foothills. It is known for the handicraft shops that line The Mall, a pedestrian avenue, as well as the Lakkar Bazaar, a market specializing in wooden toys and crafts.
