Today we are going to trek 6 Km. for about 4 hours on a steep trail. We will be walking under the dense forest cover of oak and birch trees. The sunlight filtered by the canopy of the forest makes a beautiful view. As we cross the forest cover we will enter a vast green meadow that is used as a grazing ground by the domesticated animals of the local people who live here.
