After reaching base camp at Homkund, trekkers prefer to keep days for acclimatization as it is the most important thing to do. Here team leaders usually add small hikes to nearby high places and some technical practices like using tools or guiding of emergency situations. The trail goes from tough to tougher as the ascending trail shifts from the loose rocky surface to the glacier to the snow trail which is quite difficult to walk. These coming days after the acclimatization, the group will move forward to the ABC (Advanced Base Camp) then gradually further to Camp 1 site setting up the ropes and moping the direction and likewise for camp 2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally, the day comes for the last climb to the summit for the height of 7120 m. The trail might look easy slope to climb but it\u2019s not, rather it is much tiring as one needs to conserve energy while moving up. The air is pretty cold and strong here and clouds keep moving around. Here you can see the spectacular view of Himalayan ranges where most of them will be at a lower altitude than yours. With the help of ropes, anchors, and crampons you\u2019ll move ahead from the west ridge. The wind here is so strong that it carries snow with it as it does during storms. But, lastly reaching at the top of the summit will give immense satisfaction. Peaks like Nanda Ghunti, Mrigthuni, and a wide range of Himalayas offer an impeccable view from this height.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After this successful attempt, it will be time to head back to the camps. Gradually with proper rest, the group will head to camps then over the days to ABC and then base camp. As ascend on this trail is difficult to descend is also equally difficult. But once you reach base camp then reaching Latakopri and Sutol Village will be easy and less time-consuming. The transport at the village will be arranged by Shikhar Travels<\/a><\/strong> which will further take you to your departure destination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
