    Detailed information

    Update as on August 03, 2024 

    The Monsoon rains have been a blessing this year, the weather is currently perfect for this Trek. Monsoon treks are designed for heavy rains. So, unless there is a ban by Govt, or the roads are completely blocked, the event is good to go. The batch conducted in July 28, 2024 has a great experience in the rains.
    Beware! Low-Cost trek groups often have large batch-size, this results in unsafe over-crowded trek experience which is not at all worth. Mischief Treks is renowned for conducting treks with a limited number of participants in each batch, this helps having a much better trekking experience.
