About trekking

Trekking is walking and applies to journeys made on foot. These journeys are mostly done in places where no other means of transport are available. It may involve walking for a number of days on foot. During trekking, there are always possibilities of having either designated, well laid out routes and then there is another chance of encountering un-charted and un-designated paths also. It could be snowy mountains with trails prepared on them or it could be valleys with no definite paths. You need to be prepared to face all kinds of unforeseen challenges while you are going on a trek or a hike, usually done on mountainous terrains or hills. Trekking can continue for weeks together and it depends on the paths traversed, the complexities of the routes and the final trekkers’ goals.
