be a long bike ride, for some it might be a day at the spa and for the adventurous souls, \u00a0it might be a whole lot more. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For the adventurous ones, a Himalayan trek would be a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Home to the highest peaks on the planet, the Himalayas offer so much more than what meets the eye. Once you feel the fresh mountain air hit your face, see the huge expanse of forest area all around you, you feel connected with nature. You just can\u2019t stop at one trek. The zeal to climb more mountains gets into your blood.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Personally, I was introduced to the wonderland of the Himalayas, with the Kedarkantha trek. As Ruskin Bond quoted \u2018the adventure is not just in getting somewhere, it\u2019s the on-the-way experience. It is not the expected: it\u2019s the surprise \u2018, the whole journey was just magical. Here are some of the reasons why you should give the mighty Himalayas a try :<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1Natures_beauty_at_its_best\"><\/span><b>1.Nature\u2019s beauty at its best<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The mountains offer the greatest array of features. As you drive across the winding roads, you see the streams trickling down at various places carrying fresh pristine water. The forest cover is immense, from thickly wooded trees to rhododendrons to oak and pine trees. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The gigantic mountain ranges with the snow glistening on them are the cherry on the top. It\u2019s like walking through a fairy tale. The wide variety you get in a single trek up the Himalayas satisfies every single part of your soul.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_5053\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5053\" style=\"width: 979px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-5053\" src=\"https:\/\/www.plantheunplanned.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Nature\u2019s-beauty-at-its-best.jpg\" alt=\"Nature\u2019s beauty at its best\" width=\"979\" height=\"651\" srcset=\"https:\/\/plantheunplanned.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Nature\u2019s-beauty-at-its-best.jpg 979w, https:\/\/plantheunplanned.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Nature\u2019s-beauty-at-its-best-531x354.jpg 531w, https:\/\/plantheunplanned.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Nature\u2019s-beauty-at-its-best-600x399.jpg 600w, https:\/\/plantheunplanned.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Nature\u2019s-beauty-at-its-best-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/plantheunplanned.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/Nature\u2019s-beauty-at-its-best-768x511.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 979px) 100vw, 979px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-5053\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><b>Nature\u2019s beauty at its best<\/b><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"_2Give_yourself_a_technology_detox\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a02.<\/span><b>Give yourself a technology detox<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Technology has become an integral part of our lives.

The noise of the city, the ever-so-crowded streets, the blaring honks, vehicles revving, the fast-paced competitive metropolitan life. Don\u2019t you sometimes, just want to run away from all of it? Nature is the mother of all of us. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We might be facing some challenges in our day-to-day lives or struggling with some issues in life. It is easy to get caught up in the mundane scripted lives of ours. But, mother nature has a cure for this.

Trekking gives you a new perspective on life. The prodigious ranges, make you feel like a drop of water in an entire ocean. It makes you humble and you also learn that not everything is about you.

The fact that it\u2019s ideal for a beginner made it the best option for me. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Kedarkantha<\/b><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is known for the terrific trek in virgin snow, pretty campsites, and astonishingly wide clearings in the forests. The forest floor is covered by an unending carpet of untouched snow.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After strenuous days of dealing with sub-zero temperatures, a heavy rucksack, sleeping bags, and what not? It was summit day. This was the hardest among them all. With the wake-up time being 2 am, I forgot about washing my face and brushing my teeth. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Just wrapped me in all the possible layers I could find.
