Monsoon travel tips

By Apurva P

1

Check the weather forecast

Check the weather forecast during the travel to stay vigilant about landslides and cloudbursts, and avoid going to flooded areas.

2

Pack light

Pack light and bring synthetic clothes that will quickly dry. Avoid bringing expensive items that could be damaged by water. Consider bringing a hair dryer to dry clothes faster.

3

Avoid street food

During monsoon travel, avoid street food and unreliable water sources to prevent waterborne diseases. Always check the surroundings before eating outside.

4

Protect your gadgets

Keep your electronics safe during monsoon travel by storing them in waterproof bags, covers, and cases. Tape USB ports and headphone jacks shut.

5

Wear appropriate footwear

Invest in waterproof shoes and carry an extra pair for comfortable and safe monsoon travel. Trustworthy footwear is a must-have for hikers and trekkers.
