  2. Take Acclimatization Days – Rest at intermediate altitudes to help your body adapt.
  3. Stay Hydrated – Drink plenty of water to combat dehydration and aid acclimatization.
  4. Avoid Alcohol – It can worsen altitude sickness symptoms.
  5. Monitor Your Health – Watch for headaches, nausea, dizziness, or fatigue, and descend if needed.

  • Mild Symptoms – Headache, nausea, dizziness, fatigue, loss of appetite.
  • Severe Symptoms – Persistent headache, extreme breathlessness, confusion, loss of coordination.

If severe symptoms occur, descend immediately and seek medical help.

Additional Preparations

  • Train in Advance – Improve cardiovascular fitness before your trek.
  • Consult a Doctor – Discuss any health concerns and get medical advice.
  • Check Travel Insurance – Ensure coverage for high-altitude trekking and emergencies.
  • Dress for the Cold – Higher altitudes mean lower temperatures—pack warm layers.
