This trek is the perfect way to escape the winter blues and explore a new area. The views of the snow-covered peaks are spectacular, and you can expect to see some wildlife along your journey!
This is a moderate level trek that should take around six days. One of the best parts about this trek is that it takes place during winter when there are fewer crowds than other times of year. The most exciting part is that snow-fall is frequent which simply makes the entire trekking experience magical.
