Preparing Before Your Trek

30 Days Before

Start light cardio training (brisk walking, jogging, stair climbing) 3–4 times a week to build stamina.

7 Days Before

Recheck your personal gear (boots, jacket, headlamp) and make sure your boots are already broken in to avoid blisters.

1 Day Before

Get enough rest, avoid staying up late, and arrive at the meeting point for the briefing session with your guide.

Understanding Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS)

Above 3,000m, some climbers may experience AMS symptoms such as mild headache, nausea, or dizziness due to lower oxygen levels. Our guides are trained to recognize these symptoms and will adjust the walking pace to help your body adapt gradually.

Tips to reduce risk: stay hydrated by drinking water regularly, keep a steady walking pace (don't rush), and let your guide know immediately if you feel unwell.
