Don’t take shortcuts on the Annapurna Base Camp (ABC) trek. 🥾
Those shortcut trails and the edges of the path often have dense vegetation where leeches are far more common. Even stepping into small water streams can increase your chances of picking them up.
A simple tip: always carry a small pouch of salt. If a leech attaches to you, sprinkle a little salt on it and it’ll usually let go.
Stay on the marked trail, trek smart, and enjoy the journey safely. 🌿🏔️
