Best Time to Visit Laka Glacier

Laka Glacier trek is one such trek that you can go on round the year. But our team of Manchala Mushafir suggests you avoid coming in the month of January because of the immense low temperature. The best thing about this trek is that it is operational in monsoons as well, but it is not suitable to trek the rainy weather, so it is better to avoid it.

The summers here are quite pleasant, and you can enjoy the colorful weather during the summers, whereas the winters here are cold, and you can witness the snowfall and snow-covered areas around you. But according to us, the best time to visit Laka Glacier is the spring and winter seasons, where you get either colorful and scented flowers all around or the snow-covered areas all around. Depending upon your preference, you can choose one season and finalize a date with us to give you a fantastic experience.

Strength training tips

Triund trek is most famous as an easy trek but the Laka glacier trek which is just 5 km away from Triund top is much more challenging in comparison to the Triund trek. Once you will start moving ahead of the Triund top you will start realising that the gradient here is quite stiff than the Triund top trek gradient. So one can do the Triund trek easily and without any prior preparation but if you are planning to come on the Triund Laka glacier trek then we will recommend you to start preparing for the trek at least 15 days before the scheduled date of your trekking. I am providing some tips to prepare before the trek so that you can complete this trek easily and can enjoy it to your fullest.

During trekking, we use to walk for a long distance and altitude varies with every new step. So the common exercise which you have to d0 before coming to this trek is brisk walking. Set a target of 5-6 km and try to achieve it in 15 days.
I am recommending some other common exercises which you can do to make your lower and upper body tougher.

Lower body strength training

During trekking, our lower body has to do the maximum work so training it before coming to trek is one of the most important tasks. For that, I am suggesting some exercise which you have to do for 45 seconds each with 15 seconds rest. Start with one set each and increase it to 3 sets daily.

Squats

Keep your upper body stiff and your hand either behind your head or stretch it straight in front of you at the shoulder lever. Now sit down without moving making any movement in the upper body and go up. Go slow and do it for 45 seconds. This will strengthen your quadriceps, calves, and hamstrings and will improve your flexibility to the lower body.

One leg lean squats

Now again keep your upper body and right leg stiff and sit on the left leg without making any movement to your upper body. Now go up and keep your left leg stiff and sit on your right leg. Go slow and keep repeating this for the next 45 seconds.

Lunges

Keep your hands down, and upper body straight. Put your right leg forward and drop your body down without making any movement to your upper body and bending your knees. Do it 15 times and then switch your legs and again repeat it for the next 15 times. Lunges increase muscle mass to build up strength and tone your body, especially your core, butt, and legs.

Upper body strength training

As you have to carry your luggage on your own so it is equally important to train your upper body before coming to the Laka glacier trek. I am recommending some of the upper body exercises.

Pushups:- Try to do at least 5-7 pushups with three reputations daily. This will help you to strengthen your arms and shoulders and will prepare your shoulder and arms to carry weight.

Plank for at least 30 seconds:- Lie straight with your face toward the ground, now hold your body on your forearms and feet keeping your complete body straight. Try to hold in this position for at least 30 seconds. This will help you burn your belly fat and will strengthen your chest and shoulder.

Tricep Dip:- Sit down on your hip with legs straight touching the ground. Keep your hands 1feet behind your hip and try to lift your body. Keep doing it for 45 seconds. This exercise is to strengthen the upper body and increase the range of motion of the body.

Some pro tips

Do at least 10 minutes of warmup and stretching before and after exercising. And don’t sit or keep your body idle during the resting period. Keep moving your body this will keep your body warm and active and will also decrease the chance of cramping.
