In case of a flight cancellation, your flight will be postponed for the next day or you can get the full refund.

So, how do you prepare for this trek in the Everest Region? First, do some cardio and endurance training for at least 6-7 weeks before the trek. Likewise, hiking at least 2 times a week at high altitudes can be beneficial.

Well, altitude sickness is very common after an elevation of 3500 meters. However, after feeling the symptoms, you must use preventive measures before it gets worse. First thing first, inform your trekking guide and fellow member if you start getting symptoms like headache, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, and lack of appetite.
