You’re driven to the Base Camp to meet with other Hiker , then heading directly go to the starting point of your guided mountain trek, where you’ll receive a safety briefing and equipment including a flashlight and gas mask. The approximate 1-mile (3-km) route to the summit takes roughly 1 to 2 hours over a combination of uphill and flat terrain.You need to be fit or you will find it very hard going. The track is extremely dusty when dry, and the fine dust fills the air as there can be hundreds of people are walking up. You really should bring a dust mask
En route, interact with the sulphur miners who tirelessly carry blocks of yellow sulphur weighing 132–176 pounds (60–80 kg) via bamboo pole baskets across their shoulders. Later, witness their mining activity by traditional methods using iron rods without safety equipment.
