What gear is essential for this trek?
A buffer day in trekking is crucial for ensuring flexibility and safety during an expedition. It acts as a contingency for unforeseen delays due to bad weather, health issues, or challenging trail conditions. Including a buffer day helps trekkers avoid rushing, reduces stress, and increases the chances of completing the trek successfully. It also allows time for acclimatization in high-altitude regions, minimizing the risk of altitude sickness. Overall, a buffer day adds resilience to the trekking plan, making the experience safer and more enjoyable.
Kindly note: A sum of INR 3,500/- per person will be charged extra if the buffer day used.
