      TravelerWritten February 2023

      I'm 38/39 years old. I'm a commercial diver so I have good condition running marathons. But I don't have any climbing qualifications. I did indoor wall climbing and lots of treks in the UK and Poland. I know it's nothing but I will like to try.

    • Alpine Club of HimalayaOperatorWritten February 2023

      You need to be strong enough mentally which is very essential to complete the trek. Being a marathon runner helps a lot.

    • Alpine Club of HimalayaOperatorWritten February 2023

      You must have insurance that covers emergency rescues and medical expenses. If you are unwell, we need to bring you back to Kathmandu by helicopter. Check if your insurance covers evacuation expenses.
