Our guide was really wonderful- very kind and pleasant, and patient when we had to slow down some. The sunrise was stunning, I have never seen one quite like it before. We made puja in the Temple afterwards, then did a very long hike down the mountain and stopped at the waterfall which is the source of the sacred Ganges river, for some refreshing rest. Make sure you are in good shape! We are both healthy and fit but this trek took a lot of energy to complete! Bring snacks and water.
