First of all i thank Swati and @Indiahikes for posting this.. i was unable to tell what my problem was to others... it was blisters while trekking... I got blisters one way up the trek always struggle while coming down..so painful..i thought it was just shoes alone... while coming back it was hurting very bad .........i have few more suggestion from my experience ..before even my tips starts use only hiking shoes otherwise chances are blister are 100% confirmed...1st Tip ...pls use silicon 3 in 1 foot toe and heel foot protector with pores in it so it keeps your toes soft enough also has ventilation to get away from heating... 2nd Tip please apply some little rub of alovera gel so that while trekking you have the under toe and foot lubricated so there is no chance for heat generation .....try this ..3rd tip switch to open floaters with grip also trekking version of slippers....I don't have experience about tapes..I am telling only which works based on my experience...one more thing don't wear super tight shoes you don't have space to accommodate the silicon protectors ...if we wear super tight shoes some of you might notice swelling after few hours of trekk and reason could be probably you might have done a tangled wrong step in descent...or climb...don't spend time checking for uric acid blood test etc for swelling... this swelling could be purely trekking related only..

Which socks to wear and shoes

Swathi Chatrapathy from my experience, cotton doesn't wick moisture that well. My recommendation is a good moisture wicking one, the best by far are the merino wool socks. Your comments Swathi?

is it fine to drink water from waterfalls? or from high current water streams in Himalayas?? just wanted to know like if it causes any abdominal problem like jaundice or diarrhoea..

Hi Soumyajit, Waterfall water is often contaminated with pollutants including harmful parasites or bacteria that enter the water from upstream. Unless you are positive the waterfall is spring-fed, it’s best to err on the side of caution and purify the water.

What can i do to reduce The pressure on the toe tips while walking down..
@jayantasen24062 жыл бұрын
Do not make abrupt stops while descending, make a crisscrossing path so that the downward gradient isn't too high, and use trekking poles to reduce pressure on your feet. Hope it helps!

Hello madam, I am a solo trekker... I need to ask one thing that is what is the good time for Annapurna circuit Trek?
@swathichatrapathy10586 жыл бұрын
I'd say October is one of the best months! You get the clearest weather and the best views in October. After October, it would be April. Early April preferably.
