This trek is also rated as easy that does not require much physical fitness. Ideal for novice trekkers, the low difficulty will help to take full advantage of this tour. The nature that this tour brings with it makes it no less great for the professionals as the backdrops are unsurpassed by any other treks.

Early morning, we trek to Poonhill to look at the miraculous sunrise and the much-deserved photograph.
