Yes, if its your 2nd time. As the trek is easy but distance is very long. It is very hard to carry Rasan & tent to that long route. So it is our suggestion to always travel in a group under the direction of a well known and experienced guide. You can book your trek with us as we have more than 15 years of experience in Uttarakhand's trekking industry.
It is always suggested that you should carry first aid kit with you. As Har ki Doon valley is situated in a remote area of Uttarakhand which lies under Gobind National Park so getting a doctor's clinic on the way is impossible but travelling with a group and well reputed travel company like eUttaranchal always take care about its clients. Nearest Hospital is situated in Purola which is also the well settled town before Har ki Doon trek.
Warm or woolen clothes are highly recommended because temp remains cold throughout the year in Har ki Doon valley. In summer, while doing trekking you may feel the heat but from evening to next morning, temp. falls drastically also a little rain can change the weather of Har ki Doon dramatically.
Absolutely Not. Never try to do that. Temperature changes time to time in Himalayas and high altitude sickness and liquor can makes you sick on the trek. Which generates a problem for your trek leader and other trekkers too. Your lungs need more oxygen during a tough trek or while doing a physical activity so it is advised to not do smoking on the trek. Also cigarette buds are very responsible for forest fire in the jungles of Himalayas.
