What Our Guides Found: The Acclimatization Reality
In our 12 years of experience, we have found that the 'acclimatization days' in Namche and Dingboche are the most skipped, yet most critical, parts of the journey.
- /Never skip the hike-high, sleep-low days in Namche.
- /Garlic soup is not a myth—it genuinely helps with blood oxygenation.
- /Listen to your pulse; if it doesn't drop during rest, you're ascending too fast.
