At Escape2explore, we’re committed to providing a memorable and safe trekking experience in the majestic Himalayas. The terrain and weather in the Himalayas can be unpredictable, so please follow these essential do’s and don’ts to ensure a successful and enjoyable trek.
Do’s:
Listen to Your Guide: Our professional guides are experts in Himalayan trekking. Always follow their instructions and trust their judgment, especially in tricky or high-altitude areas.
Acclimatize Properly: The Himalayas mean high altitudes, which require proper acclimatization. We’ll ensure a gradual ascent, but it’s crucial to take things slow and follow the itinerary to avoid altitude sickness. Drink plenty of water and rest when needed.
Wear the Right Gear: The Himalayas can be cold, even in summer. Wear layered clothing, including thermal wear, waterproof jackets, and sturdy, insulated trekking boots with good grip. Bring a hat and gloves to protect yourself from cold winds.
Hydrate and Eat Well: Dehydration happens faster at high altitudes. Keep sipping water throughout the trek and eat enough food to maintain your energy. Our team will provide regular breaks to recharge.
Use Trekking Poles: Himalayan trails can be steep and uneven, so using trekking poles can greatly reduce the strain on your knees and help you maintain balance.
Respect Local Culture: The Himalayan region is home to diverse local communities with rich cultural traditions. Respect the customs, interact politely with locals, and follow any guidelines provided by your guide.
Carry Essential Items: Bring items like sunscreen (even in the snow!), lip balm, sunglasses, and a first-aid kit with altitude sickness medication. It’s better to be prepared for the high-altitude sun and cold winds
Be Environmentally Conscious: The Himalayas are pristine and need our care. Follow the ‘Leave No Trace’ policy by carrying back all waste, respecting wildlife, and leaving nature undisturbed.
Don’ts:
Don’t Ignore Altitude Sickness Symptoms: If you feel dizzy, have headaches, or feel nauseous, inform your guide immediately. Ignoring these signs can lead to serious health issues. We can adjust the pace or descent if needed.
Don’t Rush or Overexert Yourself: The key to trekking in the Himalayas is steady progress. Don’t rush ahead, as it can strain your body at high altitudes. Take breaks when needed and walk at a pace that’s comfortable for you.
Don’t Pack Unnecessary Items: Light backpacks make for easier treks. We’ll help you with a packing list, so don’t bring heavy or non-essential items that will weigh you down on steep climbs.
Avoid Trekking in Dangerous Weather: The Himalayan weather can change rapidly. We monitor conditions closely, but if your guide suggests delaying the trek due to rain, snow, or windstorms, trust their decision.
Don’t Wander Off Alone: The vast Himalayan landscape can be disorienting. Always stick with the group, and let your guide know if you need to stop or take a break. Avoid exploring unfamiliar areas on your own.
Avoid Alcohol and Smoking: Consuming alcohol or smoking can worsen the effects of altitude sickness and lower your stamina. It’s best to avoid them before and during the trek for your safety and well-being.
Don’t Harm the Environment: Avoid littering or causing damage to the natural surroundings. The Himalayas are fragile, so we ask you to be mindful and carry back any waste to designated disposal areas.

The Spiti Valley Trek offers a mix of adventure, culture, and raw Himalayan beauty. Unlike lush green treks, Spiti features barren landscapes, ancient monasteries, and a Tibetan-influenced culture, giving trekkers a truly offbeat experience.
The best time for the Spiti Valley Trek is from June to October, when the snow has melted, and the trails are accessible. During these months, the weather remains stable, offering clear skies and breathtaking views of the Spitian landscapes.
This trek is moderately difficult due to the high-altitude terrain and unpredictable weather. It involves long trekking days, steep ascents, and river crossings, making it ideal for trekkers with some prior experience in the mountains.
Although beginners can attempt the trek, prior trekking experience is highly recommended. The high altitude, rough trails, and long walking hours require good stamina, endurance, and mental resilience.
The highest point on the Spiti Valley Trek is around 5,000 meters (16,400 feet), depending on the specific route. Trekkers need proper acclimatization to avoid altitude sickness.
To acclimatize, spend at least a day in Kaza or Manali before the trek. Stay hydrated, avoid alcohol, and take short walks to help your body adjust to the thin air. Slow and steady trekking is key to preventing altitude sickness.
The trek covers rocky trails, dry riverbeds, steep ascents, and high-altitude passes. Some sections involve walking on loose gravel, making sturdy trekking shoes essential for safety and grip.
Pack layered clothing, a good quality sleeping bag, high-altitude trekking boots, gloves, a hat, sunglasses, a first aid kit, and energy snacks. Since the weather can change suddenly, carrying waterproof and windproof gear is a must.
Accommodation varies from homestays in villages to camping in remote areas. Some guesthouses offer basic amenities, while campsites provide sleeping bags and tents for overnight stays in the wilderness.
Mobile network coverage is limited or non-existent in many parts of the trek. BSNL and Jio have the best chance of working in Kaza, but once you enter remote areas, expect to be off the grid.
Meals usually include simple yet nutritious food like dal, rice, chapati, vegetables, noodles, and soup. In villages, you might get local Tibetan dishes like thukpa and momos. Carry energy bars and dry fruits for quick snacks.
Yes, you can join the trek to Spiti Valley. The trek’s difficulty level is moderate and can be attained without someone’s support. Wear robust footwear, and comfortable clothes, and maintain basic fitness to complete the trek.
The safety and security of women/girls are paramount to us. Hence, it's entirely safe for women/girls to participate in our treks and travels. Our trek leaders always accompany the group, offering constant assistance and direction. Our campsites are thoroughly secure and provide a safe lodging environment. In addition, our female trek leaders often join our treks.
Your money will be refunded within 2-3 business days.
Unfortunately, it's not feasible to reschedule your trek to a future date if you're unable to attend on the designated day, regardless of the circumstances (like family emergencies, health problems, or work commitments). However, if you have concerns about this policy, please don't hesitate to email us at info@escape2explore.com, and our team will get in touch with you to discuss further.
