The route is beautiful and the pacing was sensible — nobody was rushed on the climb. Whoever planned the days knew what they were doing. Worth every rupee.

Second trek with this operator and they've kept the standard up. The campsites were well chosen — sheltered, and close enough to water. The lead was calm and knew when to slow the group down. Would book with them again.

Tyrol in the right season is something else, and the team knew exactly where to camp. Sleeping under canvas at that height is cold work and the kit was up to it. Whoever planned the days knew what they were doing. Solid operator.

Appreciate the honest feedback; we're looking at the pacing on that section.
