The main highlight of any trek journey will always be either the places you get to explore or the views that you will get to witness only once in your life.

It’s an obvious yet the most ignored fact that Hydration is very important for trekking, it’s like the backbone of the whole trip. Which is why every trek leader’s first question at the start or end of their trek is - How much water did you drink today? Half of the time, the pattern of the answer remains the same, where some of them just give sheepy smiles, some tell numbers but are in doubt, and some of them have no idea whether they have drunk it at all or not.

In one moment, you’re admiring frost-covered tree views, and in the other, you will be wondering why your fingers have started feeling numb suddenly despite wearing gloves.
