Altitude Sickness/ AMS (Acute Mountain Sickness)

Most people who are not used to going to high altitudes and who also exert themselves a lot during the Langtang Valley Ganja La Pass Trek can often be the victim of AMS. The altitude sickness or the AMS can occur from 3000 m and with the right precautions, it will be only mild and temporary in most cases. The symptoms of altitude sickness should therefore absolutely not be ignored.

If you happen to feel somewhat weak, shortness of breath during exertion, headache, constipation/diarrhea, flatulence, nausea, poor sleep, dizziness, and slight swelling of hands, feet, and face, this means you are going through mild AMS. In such a case, you should take it easy and get enough (night) rest. Sometimes, our guide may decide to take you down by 500 to 1000 m where your symptoms can sometimes disappear completely. Then you can try to climb again after a few days of rest. Regarding the prevention of AMS, you should always make a slow and phased climb. We have paid attention to adequate acclimatization so we have placed a rest day at Kyanjin Gompa followed by the short walking hours till we make it to the Pass.

When hiking, we suggest you always walk calmly, without getting out of breath, and drink water, tea, soup, and broth, but no alcohol. Also, breathe deeply and completely. You can also ingest Diamox (acetazolamide), a diuretic, which can help with altitude adjustment and reduces symptoms of altitude sickness by 50%.

Transportation

We have efficient transportation service during the entire time of the Langtang Valley Ganja La Pass Trek 13 days journey. You will have comfortable rides in private cars, vans, or buses (according to the group arrival size) for your transfers between TIA and your hotel.

For added comfort, you can also consider our upgrade options for a private jeep transfer.
