Can I go to Tibet without altitude sickness? What problems should we pay attention to in the plateau? Hiking on the plateau is usually an outdoor enthusiast with some hiking experience. I have also hiked some routes in Tibet: Gangrenboqi turns to the mountain, Chubu Temple→ Yangbajing, Gandan Temple → Sanye Temple, and the 24-hour 100 km challenge around Lhasa. At present, the highest place that ordinary tourists can reach on foot is the Zhuomalaya Pass when Gangrenboqi turns to the mountain, with an altitude of 5670 meters. Pay attention to the following points when hiking on the plateau: pay attention to the supplement of physical strength, and suggest carrying dry food with high digestibility, such as Snickers, white rabbit toffee, glucose and beef jerky. The plateau climate is dry and the water evaporates quickly. You should bring enough drinking water and some salt, preferably boiled water.

Pay attention to the addition and subtraction of clothes, the temperature difference between morning and evening in the plateau is large, and the weather changes quickly! Be careful not to sweat a lot or catch a cold, which will lead to illness or physical decline and cause altitude sickness. Rain comes and goes quickly in the rainy season on the plateau, but once it gets wet, it will lead to temperature loss. If it is rainy season, prepare a raincoat and put it in a good place. Pay attention to sun protection, high-altitude ultraviolet rays are extremely strong, and the magic headscarf is recommended. Sunscreen has limited effect and needs SPF50 or above. Ultraviolet rays at high altitude can burn bare skin in two or three hours.

Attention should be paid to geological disasters. During the rainy season in July and August, the plateau is prone to short-term heavy rain and hail, causing geological disasters such as floods, landslides and mudslides. Pay attention to observation and prevention when hiking and camping. Try to walk together, everyone has a concern. Don't panic at first when you encounter altitude sickness. Stress and fatigue will aggravate altitude sickness. At this time, you should rest properly, supplement glucose water, salt or take drugs such as Gao Yuanan. If altitude sickness is mild, you can take a proper rest and adapt. If altitude sickness is strong, you should retreat to low altitude, crowded places and towns that can provide medical services with your companions. If the situation is critical, you can call 1 10 and 120 for help.
