1) While walking from the base village to the valley we will make 3-4 small groups so that our volunteers can handle, count and track them easily.
2) No participant should leave his/her group.
3) If anyone leaves their group and faces any problems, then only himself/herself will be responsible.
4) Route can be muddy due to the rain and the terrain can be rough so it is advised to follow instructions and to be in their groups.
5) We will have 3-4 checkpoints. We will take a rest only on those points. It is an important part of the trek to complete our journey in time.
6) Please report on time at the mentioned pick-up point. In the case of any late reporting, we may have a delay to start the journey.
7) Consumption of Alcohol and Smoking is strictly prohibited. If anyone is caught by villagers or by our volunteers then we will take serious action against them.
8) If any uncertain situation occurs due to climatical, travel or any other thing, organizer is not responsible for that and further arrangements are chargeable. Fireflies is natural phenomenon.
9) There will be a long gap between breakfast and lunch so you can carry dry snacks like plum cake, wafers, almonds, etc. with you.
10) Carry sufficient amounts of water with you as per daily need.
11) Each tent will be allowed for a group of 3 people. No separate tent will be given to a group size below 3. We'll have to manage 3 people in each tent.
