How to find the best trekking shoes for your next trek

Things to look at in good Trekking Shoes

The word Trek originated in South Africa, where the word was used by the Boers for a journey by ox wagon. The British, who seized control of South Africa from the Boers at the turn of the 20th century, seized the word trek. The Dictionary meaning of word is to make a slow or arduous journey or to journey on foot, especially to hike through mountainous areas.

So now you have an idea that during any trek you will be walking through loose rocks, uneven trails, woods, jungle, water, snow etc. The best trekking shoes are the ones which while providing comfort protect your feet from the elements and have good grip on all terrains.

Pindari Glacier Trek

Pindari Glacier trek is an easy trek in the Kumaon region of Uttarakhand. This trek offers well-defined trails with only one minor pass crossing en route to the Pindari Glacier. The views from the pass– the Dhakri Khal (2830m) – are particularly impressive and include the many snow-capped peaks that form the southern rim of the Nanda Devi Sanctuary. Pindari Glacier Trek

The Goechala Trek

Kangchenjunga – the third highest mountain in the world, provides an
inspiring backdrop for the Goechala Trek. Until the discovery of the
height of Mt Everest in the 19th century, Kangchenjunga was considered
to be the highest mountain in the world. Viewing its huge flanks rising
high above the foothills, it is not hard to understand why, while the
many 7000m peaks complete an impressive panorama.For more info..Goechala Trek

Goechala Trek - Renok Adventures

Kangchenjunga – the third highest mountain in the world, provides an inspiring backdrop for the Goechala Trek. Until the discovery of the height of Mt Everest in the 19th century, Kangchenjunga was considered to be the highest mountain in the world. Viewing its huge flanks rising high above the foothills, it is not hard to understand why, while the many 7000m peaks complete an impressive panorama.Yet there are more than mountain views to whet the appetite of the seasoned trekker. The trails lead from steamy, subtropical forest with bamboo, luxuriant ferns and orchids to temperate forest bands with ancient oak and rhododendron trees before heading to the alpine meadows that afford uninterrupted views of the East Ridge of the mighty Kangchenjunga.
