Trek Training

We’ve now returned from our trek training, out and about in the heat of the Indian sun. In temperatures of up to 30 degrees and carrying around 20 kilos of personal and group kit on our backs, we had to put all our training into action. After a few hours walk on Thursday afternoon, we arrived at our location and had to rapidly construct our camp before darkness fell. Tents were erected, a toilet site set up and we all had our first experience of cooking and eating Raleigh trek-style.



In the evening, we were extremely lucky to have a presentation by Mr. Ravi Kumar, a specialist in Indian snakes. Mr. Kumar was able to give us plenty of useful advice and information on some of the local snakes we may encounter during our time here.
