Itinerary description

Trail is steep, full of vegetation and difficult to traverse and navigate. Might be one the worse official trails I had a chance to hike.

If you manage to navigate, it still offers a lot of challenge and amazing views once you clear the tree line.


Proper drinking water is scarce, but some places have water in the tourist season.

At the end of this trail there is a small hut and people there serve food and drinks.

Altitude sickness starts here and it's windy.
