Day Two of Trek Training















After waking up before dawn to make our breakfast of porridge and tinned pineapple (surprisingly tasty), the site was packed up again and we were ready to set off for our second day on our feet. Friday’s trekking tested our navigation and map reading skills, taking us on a route up to the top of Chamundi hill (a total of 1,100 steps) to the breathtakingly beautiful Temple at the top.



Once back at the camp area, we barely had time to check our feet for blisters and try to stretch out our backs a little before the tents went up again and dinner had to be cooked. Once everything was cleared away, we were able to relax under the stars and reflect on all the experiences of the day. Despite overwhelming tiredness and sore feet, the group was still able to remain positive and felt a real sense of achievement from the trip and all the experiences we had shared.



It was an interesting sight on camp this morning when the group improvised a yoga session to stretch all those tired muscles.
