- For Ladies: saree is not a suitable dress for the Yatra. Salwar Kameez, pant-shirt or a track suit will be better. Ladies who are more than 6 week pregnant shall not be allowed to undertake the pilgrimage.
- Keeping in view the tough nature of the trek, children below 13 year in age and elderly persons above the age of 70 years shall not be permitted to undertake the pilgrimage.
