The monsoon is in coincidence with the summer season and hence is not devoid of a variety of experiences that come along for trekkers for 5 days Mohare Danda Trek. The amount of greenery and misty surroundings give a different view altogether. The heavy rains contribute to a slippery trail and therefore less visibility. Flight delays/cancellations and unpredictable weather make it less favourable during this time for trekking.
Winter is a season where one can find great views of snow-covered landscape sceneries and quiet surroundings. However, the temperatures are colder, with heavy snow on the ground, and make trekking way more difficult for Mohare Danda.

This hike can be done in 5 to 6 hours of walking per day with adequate rest. A month or two before the journey date, you should start exercising and getting ready for this trip.

Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS) symptoms can appear at elevations above 2000 meters above sea level because there is less oxygen in the air, which makes breathing difficult. The signs and symptoms of AMS include nausea, fatigue, headache, and dizziness.
Keep in mind that the Mohare Danda Trek will take you above 3000 meters, and there is a risk of getting AMS. To help your body adjust to the thin air, walk gradually and gently. There is a danger that you could develop AMS if you try to move quickly and cover a large area at a high altitude. To prevent the situation from getting worse, vigilance should be exercised. Drink plenty of water to keep your body hydrated, and eat a balanced diet of foods to help your body feel more energized.
A quality travel insurance policy that provides adequate coverage for all of your activities is crucial for the Mohare Danda trek. During the journey, anything may happen. Even though we are more concerned with safety, accidents and emergencies can sometimes happen where we are going.
Physical injuries, helicopter evacuation, medical costs, and any other situations you can face while trekking should all be covered by your travel insurance policy.
Trekkers must drink plenty of water to keep their bodies hydrated and avoid altitude sickness (AMS) (Acute Mountain Sickness). Three to four liters of water per day should be consumed while climbing up Mohare Danda.
Instead of purchasing bottled water, we strongly advise you to carry one reusable water container that can hold hot water. In addition to being pricey, bottled water might cause severe issues in the Annapurna region. Water purification tablets can be used to clean water. But after taking tablets, the flavor will change. Water should always be consumed after sufficient cleansing. Both the teahouse and the tent have access to boiled water.
