Additional Info

Altitude concern

Whether you’re flying in a helicopter or hopping on a trekking journey, there is a significant elevation in altitude. Being mindful of the altitude change is crucial. Ascending in altitude results in changing in atmospheric pressure and oxygen level, and if the body can’t adapt to such changes, it can catch altitude sickness. Altitude sickness is also known as acute mountain sickness, and it can range from mild to extreme depending on the body’s conditions.

Some of the symptoms are nausea, dizziness, shortness of breath, loss of appetite, fatigue, and others. It is important to be mindful of these situations and not spend more than 1-2 hours in high elevations. Other preventive measures include staying hydrated and avoiding smoking and alcohol during the trip. Also, you can consider spending in a higher altitude region to adapt to high altitude before hopping on this journey. Be sure to bring medicine for that and you’ll be fine if you follow the instructions of your team.

Weather considerations

Considering the weather conditions before heading for the journey is crucial. The best time for this adventure is considered to be Spring (March to May) and Autumn (September to November). This is because, during this time, the climatic conditions of the region tend to be stable.
