Trekking Grades In Nepal

Trekking Grades In Nepal

 

Trekking in the Himalayas of Nepal requires good health conditions and a sound level of physical fitness. People suffering from cardiac or respiratory problems should consult with their doctor before booking their trip. Morning and evening walks, jogging, stretching, meditation, and regular exercise can prepare you for the strenuous geography of the Himalayas but not for its altitude. Altitude is the deciding factor on every trip in the Himalayas that goes higher than 3,500 meters. Taking it slow and easy with a properly planned itinerary is the best way to tackle it. It is essential to choose a Trek that fits your capabilities if you are totally new to altitude. Depending upon the terrain, average distance of each day, and altitude, Visit Himalaya Treks Pvt. Ltd has four different trekking grades in Nepal.

Paths can be rough, and steep and have many ‘ups’ and ‘downs’ with some exposure, and some days, in particular, might even be strenuous because of the high altitude.
