Anyone with basic to moderate hiking experience can embark on the Gosaikunda Lake Trek. The highest elevation you will reach is 4,210m (13,312ft) in just a few days, so be prepared for some steep and challenging climbs through narrow forest trails and ridges. However, the risk of altitude sickness is low because the trek itinerary is designed to allow for gradual acclimatization, and we maintain a comfortable hiking pace throughout.
Accommodation during the trek is provided in basic mountain lodges. You will be accompanied by an experienced guide and porters who will carry your luggage during the journey.
