Kheerganga trek, an ideal trek for novices, was my very first trek. And keeping in mind that it was a simple trek, there is a great deal that I had close to zero familiarity with prior to beginning the trek. Subsequently, I confronted a ton of issues however eventually, our objective was totally worth the effort.
