However, we provide duffle bag, backpack, cap, t-shirt with “I am Adi Kailashi” inscribed on it, and a key ring to all the yatris in Dharchula. We leave excess luggage in Dharchula and only carry necessary luggage for upto 3 days in the duffle bag (with a unique number for identification) and backpack provided as they are easy to carry during the yatra.
