Walking in higher altitudes is more physically\ndemanding than walking in the lower altitudes; however, if we are in excellent\nhealth with average physical fitness, have a positive attitude and strong\ndetermination, we can accomplish the trek successfully. Exercising and jogging\nregularly is a good idea to enhance our strength and stability.

During most of the journey one will be\nstaying in the teahouses which normally provides facilities such as food,hot\nshower, WIFI, charging facilities and accommodation.
