Keeping in view the altitude and various factors related
with it, trekking has been categorized in two broad
categories, i.e. Low Altitude Trekking and the High
Altitude Trekking. In the first category trekking
activity is limited below the snow line, whereas in the
latter type a trekker finds himself crossing high
passes, snow fields, difficult terrain and camping at
rarefied sounds. This necessitates mastering of some
techniques and proper acclimatization and equipment to
avoid mishaps and mountain sickness. This does not mean
that trekking should be construed to be climbing or
mountaineering. Climbing is a specialized field
requiring intensive training and sophisticated
equipment. Trekking is only a first step towards that
direction. It requires a pair of strong legs, will power
and some easily available equipment." However, there' is
no denying the fact that some experience of rock
climbing proves good in high altitude trekking.
Knowledge of mountains, glaciers, valleys and terms
connected with these can make trekking immensely
enjoyable and educative exercise.
