  • Balanced Diet: Eat light, high-carbohydrate meals to support energy levels and aid in acclimatization.
  • Listen to Your Body: If you experience symptoms of altitude sickness, such as headaches or dizziness, take frequent breaks, rest, and avoid exertion. If symptoms worsen, descending to a lower altitude is crucial.
