It's hard to sleep at such high altitude. There's a lot of hiking to get done in one day, as you still need to descend a good portion of the mountain after reaching the summit. We aim to reach the summit around sunrise, which offers a glorious view of the surrounding landscape. The perfect reward for your many days of hard trekking!
