You’ll need to be able to carry a backpack weighing 10-15 kg and manage steep ascents and descents. Previous hiking experience on similar terrain is recommended. ### Do I need prior hiking experience? Yes, some prior hiking experience on varied and steep terrain is necessary. The trek involves challenging sections with significant elevation, so it’s important to be accustomed to walking with a backpack and dealing with high-altitude conditions. ### What’s the group size? The group size is kept small, with maximum of 7 participants. This allows for a more personalised experience and ensures you receive attention from the guide. ### Can I come alone? Absolutely! Many people travel solo on this trek, and it’s a great way to meet like-minded adventurers. The small group size means you'll quickly get to know the others, and the supportive atmosphere is perfect for making new friendships. ### What should I bring? A detailed packing list will be sent to you upon booking. Key items to bring include hiking boots, lightweight layers, a warm jacket, and your personal snacks. As the trek involves mountain huts, be prepared for basic but comfortable accommodation. ### What kind of food is provided? Breakfast and lunch are provided daily.

When staying in mountain huts, two evening dinners are included, offering hearty meals suited for hikers. You’ll need to bring your own snacks for the trail. ### What about travel or personal insurance? Travel/personal insurance is required for the trip. It is your responsibility to ensure that your insurance covers all aspects of the trip, including hiking at high altitudes and any potential cancellations or medical emergencies. ### How do I get to the starting point?
