6–7 days.
Moderate cardio fitness with experience hiking 4–7 hour days; comfortable with sustained uphill sections at altitude.

Basic but functional: shared rooms, simple meals, and limited hot water; bring cash and small comforts like snacks or a headlamp.
Spring (Mar–May) and autumn (Sep–Nov) offer the best weather and visibility; winter is cold and summer monsoon brings heavy rains and slippery trails.
