Questions About This Tour

After the jeep to the Raikot base, it is a 1.5 to 2 hour uphill walk (or pony ride) to the meadows. It is moderate but non-technical; we keep the pace relaxed and carry your bags.
The Fairy Meadows track is open roughly April to October. Outside those months snow closes the jeep road, so we schedule this tour within the open season.
Yes, an English-speaking licensed guide is with you throughout, and we arrange all applicable permits and NOCs.
