Trekking is simply walking along a fixed trail amidst the beautiful scenarios of the mountains until you reach your destination. Trekking consists of multiple days of walking in rural and underdeveloped areas and is mostly thrilling/adventurous.
People often confuse trekking with hiking but hiking needs lesser effort than an actual trek. Hiking is also basically walking but for a shorter distance with minimal planning and organization. It is considered a recreational activity that involves walking alongside nature, enjoying the beautiful sceneries.
As the name suggests “Peak Climbing” requires trekkers to summit a Himalayan peak. Peak climbing is both physically and technically challenging compared to the normal treks.
