    I had made Larka la on 06/04/2022 but in my experience your itinerary from day 4, day 5, day 7 is quite harder for normal trekker. if you want normal itinerary, write to my local guide Avi Whatapp: 977 9842474250

    Hi Pierren,
    Thanks for the feedback on the Itinerary.
    If you don’t mind, can you let me know what is “Quite harder” for Day 4, 5 and 7.
    The traversing distance or altitude or the route itself is not good in that areas ?
    Any help would be appreciated.
