Let me tell you all the essentials that you will need to do this travel.
first things first, we will be travelling 14000 feet above sea level and there are some very important things you will have to carry.
1) Always have enough warm clothes, we went in the month of july-august, it was the time when it was warm (temperature ranging from 0-6 degree celcius) . A sweater, thermals, A cap that can cover your ears is a must, also a cowboy hat will be good to keep you away from the heat of the sun.
2) Have good quality grippy shoes (we had the ones from quechua, colombia is better), as there will be steep inclines to climb on rocky mountains.
3) Have a couple litres of water, always, YOU will NEED it.
4) A rucksack will be the best way to carry your luggage as trolly bags will be difficult to move around in the mud and ice.
5) a good quality camera will be very helpful to click images of raw nature at its best.
These lakes are situated in Kashmir, in India.
the nearest airport is SRINAGAR which is close to 100 kms away from the base camp in SONMARG, from where we will be starting our journey for 7 days through the mountains, away from civilization.
the only transport through these mountains is by walk or horse so make sure you are fit enough to walk a total of 90 kms in 7 days or rent a horse.
