Why Should We Go On A Trek Atleast Once In Our Life?

I recently went on a mountaineering trek to Mankiani Peak and Kareri Lake.
The Kareri Lake is formed by the inflow of melted waters from the Mankiani Peak. Kareri lake is a high altitude, shallow, fresh water lake south of the Dhauladhar range approximately 9 km North West of Dharamsala in Kangra district, Himachal Pradesh.

So, I think I am the right person to tell people some of the wonders of trekking.

1. You will connect more to yourself. As there would be no network connection, you would not be looking at your cellphone with each passing second. You will be with nature for that span of time.

2.You will realize we are a part of very vast universe as you will see the grand mountains in front of you, water flowing beside you,tall trees surrounding you and the closer look of stars at night.

3.You will be mesmerized by the beauty there. As you will go higher, you will be fascinating more and more because of the view.

4.While you would be climbing higher, you would crave to sit and take rest in between. But your group would motivate you. Then you would not stop yourself. At that point you will push your limits.

5.And when you will reach to your top, you would realise that it is worth the hard work that we did.

6.You will see closely, the hardships of the local people living there, their day to day struggles.

7.Mountains are the biggest power. We have to walk higher (or climb) by bending forward( towards mountain). It is considered as a symbol of respect to mountain that you bow your head in front of Them. They will take care of you if you do so.

It teaches us the lesson of #Give and Take Respect.

8.You will know the importance of teamwork. You will see how we can be a strength or a weakness to any team. If you are going for peak climb and one of the team members is not fine, then some of you will have to take him back (To the base camp).

9.There would be situations where you would be slipping on the rocks and falling down there. But you will rise up again and continue. And so is life.

So, just get some time and Plan a trek ASAp because it is worth a try!
