Grade  (Easy)
|
Easy trekking by Himalayan standards
is generally up to 2000m. There are plenty of ups and downs on
well-maintained trails. This type of trip is best suited for those who lead a
reasonably active life. The trek takes about 3 to 7 days, walking about 4 to
5 hours a day.

Grade (Moderate)
|
This involves longer treks (five
to ten days) on maintained trails. This type of trek includes day excursions
to higher elevations, for which it's advisable to have some previous hill-
walking experience. On these treks, we generally achieve an altitude between
900m to 3000m.

A reasonably demanding trek at an
altitude up to 4000m with side trips to higher elevations. The trails are
sometimes uncharted and away from inhabited areas.

Grade
(Strenuous)
|
These treks must be fully
supported. We climb to altitudes between 3500 and 5000m. & there are
overnight stays at altitudes above 4000m. For this trek, trekkers should be
fit & enthusiastic hill walkers prepared to tackle difficult terrain in
remote areas.

Alpine, and suitable is suitable for those in excellent health, capable of
carrying a backpack, when required. The trek covers very remote areas,
traveling over snow-covered passes at an altitudes of up to 6500m. You will
need to axes and crampons. No strenuous trek should be undertaken without
medical clearance.

Grade (Challenging) |
Obviously we hope to fulfill our objectives but realistically we can only
guarantee start and finish times with these treks. Limited to those with an
excellent level of personal experience and fitness, an outstanding sense of
humor, with high tolerance levels. During the trek you may have to cross-snow -
covered passes in very remote areas or climb up to 6000meters or more in altitude. All
our Peak climbing are in this section.
