点评:A tough trek, which gives you a feeling of accomplishment at the end of it. Although it is not a very long one, 12 kms to and fro, it is a steep climb and not for those who are not used to trekking or climbing. Carry minimum weight on your back, as heavy backpacks make it even tougher to climb. The small entry post offers walking sticks for rent for a nominal fee and surely recommended. Carry enough water as you would not get any till the mid point where there is small cafe alongside the camping place, which offers maggie and tea coffee. We carried some packed food, too. Although we did not camp there, the camping site looked promising and would have made a lovely experience. There is a government guest house with basic rooms, too. At a slow pace it takes about two hours to reach the cafe/camping mid point. Khaliya top meadows are another 800 meters of steep climb ahead. There is a proper trail all the way and one needs no guide or map to do this trail. From Khaliya top to Zero point- the absolute top of the moutain is yet another 2 kms. We had a great time at Khaliya top and made a dash to the Zero point, which was a bit disappointing as it was wrapped in fog and we couldn't see any of the proclaimed great views. But the hike was beautiful, too, and in all honesty, we enjoyed it. Fnding the way back was a bit tricky due to the fog. There are sign boards along the route from Khaliya top to Zero point, so on a clear day, it shouldn't be a problem.
If you are a touch and go trekker, with a good stride, 6 hours are sufficient to do the whole trek with small breaks. If you are someone who likes to take the views in and take longish breaks, with a medium to slow pace, then keep at least 8 hours from base to base, and more if you want to spend more time on top. Always better to start early!
Points to remember- wear good shoes, carry enough food and water, mostly no network to mobile on the route, carry a jacket for the windy top.
翻译:这是一次艰难的跋涉,但最终会让您感到很有成就感。虽然这段路程不是很长,来回只有 12 公里,但这是一个陡峭的攀登,不适合那些不习惯徒步旅行或攀岩的人。背上要尽量少带东西,因为沉重的背包会让攀登更加困难。小入口处提供手杖出租,收费很低,强烈推荐。带上足够的水,因为您直到中途才会有水,那里有露营地旁边的小咖啡馆,提供玛吉和茶咖啡。我们也带了一些打包的食物。虽然我们没有在那里露营,但露营地看起来很有希望,会是一次愉快的体验。那里还有一家政府招待所,提供基本房间。如果速度慢的话,大约需要两个小时才能到达咖啡馆/露营地的中途点。前面还有 800 米的陡峭攀登,才能到达 Khaliya 顶部草甸。一路都有一条合适的小径,走这条路不需要导游或地图。从 Khaliya 山顶到 Zero point(山的绝对顶峰)还有 2 公里。我们在 Khaliya 山顶玩得很开心,然后冲向 Zero point,但有点令人失望,因为雾气笼罩,我们看不到任何宣称的美景。但徒步旅行也很美,老实说,我们很享受。由于有雾,回程有点难找。从 Khaliya 山顶到 Zero point 的路上有路标,所以在晴朗的日子里,应该不成问题。
如果您是步伐稳健、步伐轻快的徒步旅行者,6 小时足以完成整个徒步旅行,中间稍作休息。如果您喜欢欣赏美景并稍作休息,速度中等到慢,那么从山脚到山脚至少要花 8 小时,如果您想在山顶多呆一段时间,则需要更多时间。早点出发总是更好的!
要记住的要点是——穿好鞋,携带足够的食物和水,路线上大多没有移动网络,带上一件夹克以防上风。
