A Traveller’s Guide to Mountaineering

A blog can help a lot of people to understand and gain knowledge about a journey or event they are really looking forward to. We got a lot of knowledge from our journey mentors who were just as enthusiastic as we were about this trip. They accompanied us and helped us in overcoming all the challenges we faced.

We got many daring challenges. There were so many activities we did. They dared us and helped us to stretch our comfort zones. These activities were rappelling, rope climbing, tree climbing, ziplining, etc. Many knowledgeable things required while trekkin were taught to us. These include first aid, shelter making, etc. They provided us insights on what life on mountains is like.

We were organised into different teams and were assigned different activities. After a lot of trekking, we had fun with our teachers, mentors, and schoolmates. We lit bonfires every night accompanied with an enjoyable talent show. We were also assigned rooms in groups of four. They were very spacious and comfortable to rest in. We slept very well at night. After we woke up, we did some energising activities. We also received delicious food after we came back from activities in the afternoon and evening. Overall, we had a joyful and jubilant trip. Our special thanks goes to our mentors and teachers who accompanied us for the whole time.
