I want to go to Tibet on foot. What preparations should I make before going?

It is very difficult to go to Tibet on foot, so you must make full preparations before going.

Here are some suggestions from netizens for your reference, but the decision is up to you. Don't be afraid to move forward.

There are many classic hiking routes, but the longest crossing route generally does not exceed one week. If you haven't tried it, please think about the following questions:

First, do you have enough physical and psychological requirements?

For example, some people upstairs say that the Medog Line in Tibet will cross Medog on foot, passing through high-altitude mountainous areas and many grasshopper areas along the way. I have friends who are exhausted on the third day after crossing Medog, and Cao Meng, who is unpredictable and psychologically prone to collapse, is quite dangerous. For example, I walked through the Brock Desert on foot, the sun was shining, and I walked for a few hours, and the yellow desert was in full view, which made people feel desperate. . . .

Second, do you have enough equipment?

Simple, such as a pair of suitable hiking shoes, backpacks, tents and sleeping bags, GPS or compass, stoves and gas tanks, suitable water replenishment containers (such as hiking water bags) and so on. The speed of hiking is relatively slow, such as the classic hiking route: running away from Medog, crossing the Tiger Leaping Gorge and crossing the Bronk Desert. It takes 2-5 days. Without the above equipment, it is impossible to complete.

Third, have you found the right partner?

The risk factor of personal hiking is extremely high, and a companion with the same experience and ability is very important. Many times, you have to find the supply team. For example, it takes at least five days to cross Xilin Gol, and a supply truck with food and water is often needed.

Fourth, do you have the basic knowledge of outdoor survival?

For example, how to tell the direction in the wild? How to get water in the wild? How to choose a suitable camping site? Emergency self-rescue skills after heatstroke or mosquito bites. , will directly affect your life safety.

If you don't make these preparations, please be careful!

The following links some hiking knowledge for you. Someone upstairs said that the green field is really good. It will be of great help to you to look at other people's strategies more. In addition, there are not many hiking routes in Tibet, because it is difficult to find suitable food and water supply, and it is not recommended to start hiking in Tibet.

Matters needing attention in hiking

Compared with other forms of tourism, hiking is most affected by nature and consumes the most physical strength. In particular, we need to pay attention to several issues:

1. It is best to go together, at least three people, and help each other and take care of each other on the way. But it's best not to have too many people, otherwise it will interfere with each other and make it inconvenient to move. Luggage belt eats less and is light, but he must take some common medicines.

2. Before you leave, you should know all aspects of the area you need to pass, your physical condition (such as vascular diseases of lower limbs, skin ulcers, people with flat feet are not suitable for hiking) and the climatic conditions at that time.

3. When hiking in summer, avoid the hottest time 165438+ 0: 00 am to 3: 00 pm, put on a straw hat and fill the kettle with water to avoid heatstroke.

4. To master the walking speed, it is generally slower at both ends and faster in the middle. Start walking slowly and then speed up in a few days. You should have a good rest on the road every day, usually at noon. Rest places should avoid direct sunlight and low-lying and humid places.

5. Ensure adequate sleep time and nutritional supplements, don't just eat dry food for a long time, but try to eat as many fresh fruits and vegetables as possible.

6. It is ideal to wear sports shoes when hiking, because these shoes are elastic, light, breathable and non-slip, which can play a moderate buffering role on the brain and reduce foot swelling caused by long-distance walking. You can also wear rubber shoes.

7. If it is a long-distance hiking trip, it is best to carry out several adaptive trainings before departure, gradually increase the amount of exercise and enhance endurance. When walking, touch the ground with your feet, exert moderate force and keep your body balanced.

8. Wash your feet with warm water after walking every day to relieve fatigue. When blisters appear on the soles of the feet, you can puncture the water with a needle (first wipe it with an alcohol cotton ball or burn it on the fire) and then apply mercuric chloride to prevent infection.

9. Go up the hill and lean forward slightly; To climb steep slopes, you should take a zigzag route; When going down the mountain, lean back, relax the muscles of lower limbs and avoid low back and leg pain.

10. Hiking should determine the daily itinerary according to your physical condition, generally walking 4-5 kilometers per hour. You can choose shade, gazebo and other places to rest 15 minutes to recover your strength.

1 1. It's also fun to take a long detour. Don't take the same road often, you might as well take a detour and look around, because there are different changes due to different climates and seasons. Sometimes you might as well stop and observe, maybe you will find something new.

12. Personal clothes for hiking In addition to the above basic items, it is very important to have a pair of shoes that you think are comfortable to wear and convenient to travel. The sole should not be too thin, and you can't wear new leather shoes.

Hiking skills

Healthy body and good physical reserve are one of the most important conditions for hiking. There are no shortcuts, so you must make a physical training plan that suits you and gradually improve your endurance, strength and weight-bearing walking. Physical endurance training can be obtained by swimming, mountain climbing, long-distance running and cycling, and strength training can be obtained by doing push-ups, lifting dumbbells, sit-ups and pull-ups every day.

The Basic Principles and Essentials of Walking Crossing

Basic principles and essentials of hiking: Hiking is not only a leg exercise, but also a whole body exercise. Pay attention to balance your body and adjust your pace by swinging your arms. To control the rhythm, the best walking speed is to walk without breathing, the pulse should not exceed 120 beats/min as far as possible, the back should be heavy and stiff, take a deep breath with the abdomen, all the soles of the feet touch the ground, and move from heel to toe. Always walk at your own pace, don't be fast or slow, and try to keep a constant speed.

At the beginning of hiking, you can slow down a little and let all parts of your body warm up first, so there is an adaptation process. It takes 5- 10 minutes to speed up your pace. From a safety point of view, players should keep a reasonable distance, usually 2-3 meters, to avoid people stopping for various reasons, such as tying their shoes, taking off their clothes and drinking water. , suspended players and advanced players will not affect each other. Generally, the advancing players cross from the left, and when they meet other oncoming teams, they also pass politely according to my right and his left. Generally, the safe distance between the suspended personnel and the team shall not exceed 10 minutes or 200m during the day, and must be within 5min or 20m at night. In walking, we should form good habits and concentrate on walking. Don't laugh while walking and sing loudly while playing. This will not only distract other players' attention, but also consume our physical strength unnecessarily.

When walking uphill, the center of gravity should be in front of the soles of your feet and your body should lean forward slightly. When going downhill, the center of gravity should be placed on the palm of the hind foot, and at the same time, the center of gravity should be lowered, and the body will droop slightly. Whether going uphill or downhill, you should take a zigzag shape for slopes with large slopes, and try to avoid going straight up and down. This is a relatively safe way to walk. When going uphill or downhill, you must try to pull stones, branches and vines with your hands and have a look. Players often fall down and get injured because they are pulling withered and rotten branches and vines, which leads to accidents.

The rest principle of walking should also pay attention to methods, generally combining length and length. Generally, the short rest on the way should be controlled within 5 minutes as far as possible. Don't take off your backpack and other equipment, mainly stand and rest, and adjust your breathing. Take a rest every 60-90 minutes, and the rest time is 15-20 minutes. When taking a long rest, you should unload all the load-bearing equipment such as backpacks, stand and adjust your breathing for 2-3 minutes before sitting down. Don't sit down and rest as soon as you stop, it will increase the burden on your heart. You can massage each other's legs, waist, shoulders and other muscles, or you can lie flat and raise. Remember: rest is positive and positive, not just lying down. When I walked 100 km, I walked in a team of six people, including Indians and Inoue, that is, I took the principle of taking the initiative to rest and relax on time, and completed the walk of 100 km.

When hiking, you should bring enough drinking water, about 3 liters per person per day, which will increase or decrease according to the weather. If there are streams, lakes and rivers supplying water on the way, we should first observe the pollution of the water source, whether there are human and animal activities, whether there are animal carcasses lying by the water, whether there are feces and caterpillars pollution, and whether it is black and smelly. According to the observed situation, methods such as precipitation, filtration and separation should be adopted before drinking. Under normal circumstances, it is best to wipe your lips with a small amount of water drops first, and then drink it after 3-5 minutes until your lips are numb, itchy, odorless and tasteless. The water replenished from other places should be boiled for five minutes if possible. Drink water in small quantities and many times. Drinking water is also active. Don't wait for thirst to drink water passively. It is better to drink two or three sips at a time. If you are too thirsty, you can stay for a short time and increase the number of drinks. If you drink too much water at a time, you will not waste precious water, but will increase the burden on your heart. The best supplementary water consumption for outdoor sports such as hiking is 250CC/ 15min. Normal walking time, urination should also be 4 hours/time. You can know the symptoms of dehydration by observing the color of urine. Urine is dark yellow, slightly thirsty, with normal pulse rate as mild dehydration symptoms, urine is dark yellow, oral mucosa is dry and thirsty, and pulse rate is fast and weak as moderate dehydration symptoms, while hyperosmotic dehydration symptoms are anuria, pale skin, shortness of breath, thirst and lethargy, and rapid and weak pulse.

Finally, I wish you all the best and a pleasant journey.
