Altitude Sickness:

PLEASE NOTIFY your HEAD GUIDE immediately if you have the following symptoms during the trek:

1) A respiratory infection

2) A sore throat

3) A cold

4) A cough

5) A high temperature

6) A nose bleed

Altitude sickness occurs at times during the trek. If you have decided to take any medication for altitude, we do recommend you start taking it 3 days before reaching high altitude and continue taking it until you complete your trek. There are also many trekkers who have trekked successfully without using medication for altitude sickness.
