BEFORE YOU GO · CAUTIONARY DETAILS
Break the boots in before you come
The single most common reason a trek stops being enjoyable. New boots on day one means blisters by day two and a descent on ruined feet by day four. Walk fifty kilometres in them at home first, on hills if you can find any.
Deal with a hot spot immediately
The moment something rubs, stop and tape it. Everyone on the trail will wait two minutes for that and nobody wants to wait an hour later while it is dressed properly.
The group moves at its slowest walker
That is not a courtesy, it is how groups stay together and how nobody ends up alone on a ridge in cloud. If that person is you on a given day, say so early rather than falling quietly behind.
Never leave the group to go ahead
Almost every serious incident on a marked Indian trail starts with somebody moving faster than the guide and taking a turning that looked obvious. Waiting at junctions is the whole discipline.
Treat your water
Streams above the villages look clean and mostly are; below them they are not, and giardia will ruin a week. Filter, boil, or use tablets — and drink more than you feel like.
Weather turns faster than you can descend
An afternoon build-up in the Himalaya arrives in under an hour. That is why days start early and why a guide who wants to turn back at eleven in the morning is not being cautious for the sake of it.
A stream is not the same in the afternoon
Snowmelt peaks with the day's heat, so a crossing that was ankle-deep at eight is thigh-deep at three. Cross early, unclip your waist belt, and face upstream.
Carry original photo ID
Forest and park entry in the Indian Himalaya is permitted through the district administration and checked at the gate against the permit your operator holds. A photocopy is not always accepted.
The medical certificate is not a formality
Several states now require a doctor-signed fitness certificate on higher and glacier-bound routes, and more ask for one over 55 or with a pre-existing condition. Get it early; it is a reason people are turned back at the road head.

Sardinia in the right season is something else, and the team knew exactly where to camp. Never went hungry, and the tea appeared exactly when it was needed. Would send friends their way.

The route is beautiful and the pacing was sensible — nobody was rushed on the climb.

Did this over 6 days and it was the best walking I've done in years. Every night's lodge was a step up from what I'd braced for. Would book with them again.

Second trek with this operator and they've kept the standard up. Every night's lodge was a step up from what I'd braced for. Never went hungry, and the tea appeared exactly when it was needed. No hesitation recommending them.

Well organised from the pickup onwards. The daily distances were honest about what they'd be. Every night's lodge was a step up from what I'd braced for. Would send friends their way.

The route is beautiful and the pacing was sensible — nobody was rushed on the climb. The teahouses were warm and the beds were fine after eight hours walking. Food was plentiful and hot, which counts for a lot at altitude. Good value for what's included.

Questions people ask

Not on this trip and not without preparation. It is roughly forty-five kilometres over four to seven days, unmarked, with abseils, no water and no exit points. It is widely called the hardest trek in Italy and it needs a dedicated guided expedition.
