Frequently Asked
Questions
What type of food will be served?
We, provide three vegetarian meals and evening snacks. No non-vegetarian food will be served during the trek, but eggs will be included.
How many people will share a tent?
Tents are typically shared on a triple basis, but if you’re a couple and would prefer a twin-sharing setup, just let us know at least a week before the trek begins. We’re happy to accommodate you!
Do I need to carry trek equipment?
We’re excited to let you know that we’ll take care of the sleeping bags, inner liners, sleeping mats, and tents for you! All you need to bring along is your personal gear. Happy packing!
Can we store excess luggage at the hotel in Base Village?
Yes, guests will have access to designated cloakrooms for storing excess luggage. Should you be carrying a laptop or any valuable items, please inform the base camp manager so that appropriate arrangements can be made for their secure storage. It is advisable to refrain from bringing expensive items or laptops while participating in the trek to ensure a more enjoyable experience.
Can we consume alcohol during the trek?
No, alcohol consumption is strictly prohibited. If you get sick due to drinking, we will cancel your trek and send you back to the base village. You won't receive a refund, and you will have to pay for your stay at the base village.
What type of shoes do I need? Will sports shoes work?
When choosing the right shoes for your trek, consider the type of terrain you'll be encountering. For snow treks, it's crucial to invest in a quality pair of trekking shoes. To ensure a comfortable fit and avoid blisters during your adventure, take the time to break in new shoes by wearing them for a few days before your trek. For summer treks or those following the monsoon season, opt for shoes that provide excellent grip and strong ankle support. This will enhance your stability and overall experience on the trail. Happy trekking!
Is there mobile signal available on treks?
When embarking on a trek, it's wise to temper your expectations regarding mobile signals. Most trails are remote and often lack connectivity. Only in rare instances will you encounter a solitary cell tower perched on a distant hillside. Even then, whether that fleeting signal is strong enough to allow for a call remains a gamble. As you venture into nature's embrace, prepare to disconnect and immerse yourself in the breathtaking beauty surrounding you.
What should you do if it rains during the trek?
If it rains during the trek, it's important to be prepared. Please carry a poncho and a bag cover with you. Light drizzles won't interrupt our journey, and we will continue trekking. However, in the case of heavy rain, we’ll find the nearest shelter where we can rest comfortably until the rain subsides or becomes lighter. This way, everyone can stay safe and enjoy the experience!
How do you manage toilets?
To manage toilets during the trek, we utilize portable toilet tents since there are no permanent facilities available. We recommend bringing wet tissues or tissue wipes for your convenience. This way, we can all ensure a clean and comfortable experience while respecting the environment.
How is water managed at our camp sites?
There are water sources available near all our camps. The support staff will provide you with all the water you need.
Is there a doctor on the trek?
No. The guide and the trek leader are trained for first aid only.
Is this water safe to drink?
We will ensure that all water is treated and safe to drink.
How many kilometers will we walk in a day?
It varies from trek to trek, but generally, it's about 6-10 kilometers a day.
What steps should I take to prepare for the trek?
To prepare for the trek, start running at least 3-4 km every day.
What should I do if I need to cancel my trek? Is the booking amount refundable?
Please refer to our cancellation policy on the website for detailed information. The amount refunded may vary depending on the date of your cancellation, as we may deduct a certain percentage.
What will we do in case of a medical emergency?
At Mountains Path, your safety is our priority. Our guides are trained in first aid to handle common ailments during your trek. In a serious emergency, we will promptly evacuate you to the nearest base village and hospital. Please note that evacuation costs will be the individual's responsibility. Your well-being is important to us, and we are here to support you.
What to Wear During the Day and Night?
Hey there! Let’s talk about what to wear during the different seasons.
In the summer, you can’t go wrong with a comfy half-sleeve t-shirt and a pair of shorts for the daytime. When the evening rolls around, just throw on a light fleece and a warm jacket, along with some track pants, to stay cozy!
When winter hits, it’s time to bundle up! During the day, aim for two layers—like a fleece and a t-shirt—to keep you warm. But at night, you’ll want to really layer up with four pieces, including a good down jacket and thermal warmers for both your top and bottom. Stay warm and enjoy the season!
