It is wise to\nclimb slower to prevent it. As, it is very common on most of the treks&nbsp; and can happen to anybody, irrespective of\nhow old or fit you are or if you have previous trekking experience. So, here\nare some ways to prevent Altitude Sickness:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Hydration<\/strong>&#8211; Drink plenty of water, it&#8217;s very important to stay hydrated.<\/li><li><strong>Trekking Pace<\/strong>&#8211; Walk at your own pace, take your time, don\u2019t go too fast.<\/li><li><strong>Eat carbs<\/strong>&#8211; It\u2019s not often we\u2019re told to eat extra carbohydrates but when\n     you\u2019re at higher altitudes, you need more calories.<\/li><li><strong>Avoid Alcohol<\/strong>&#8211; Alcohol,cigarettes and medications like sleeping pills can make\n     altitude sickness symptoms worse. So, avoid it.<\/li><li><strong>Medication<\/strong>&#8211; Taking acetazolamide(Diamox)two days before the trip and during\n     your trip can help prevent altitude sickness.

Here is the list of things one\nneeds to consider while going on a trek.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Physical_Condition_and_Preparation\"><\/span><strong>Physical Condition and Preparation:<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It is very important that one should be of sound health before\nundertaking any kind of trek. Most treks are suitable for passionate walkers\nwho have the ability to walk at least 6-7 hours a day with a light rucksack.\nIt&#8217;s not necessary that the trek is going to be 6-7 hours a day sometimes it\nmight even be 7-8 hours. 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. If one has past\nexperiences with hiking then that would be an asset but no technical skills are\nrequired for this trip. Also, we advise you to consult with your doctor(s)\nbefore undertaking the trip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Kind_Of_Accomodation_Is_Available_In_Mustang_Region_Trek\"><\/span><strong>What Kind Of Accomodation Is Available In Mustang Region Trek?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The accommodation during the trek in Annapurna Region will mostly be\nin tea houses and it also highly depends upon the routes one takes as well. As\nsome of the less trodden areas of the region may not have as many tea houses as\nthe frequently trekked routes. During most of the journey one will be staying\nin the teahouses which normally provide facilities such as food,hot showers,\nWIFI, charging facilities and accommodation.
