Trek FAQs
#Answers you are looking forÂ
The best time to do the Har Ki Dun Trek is from April to June and September to November. During these months, the weather is stable and the snow has melted, making the trek easier.
The chances of altitude sickness on the Har Ki Dun trek are relatively low. This is because the trek does not reach extremely high altitudes, with the highest point being around 3,656 meters (12,000 feet). However, individuals vary in their susceptibility, so it’s still important to acclimatize properly and stay hydrated.
Beginners can join the Har Ki Dun Trek, but they should be in good shape and do some basic fitness training beforehand to manage the trek’s physical demands.
