Tharu was trying to clean the Place. Good Job Bro

It is hazardous for Nature and the wild animals living in Horton Plain therefore Do not hesitate to clean or pick polythene and dump into the proper places, if you find them somewhere.

My friend, Tharidu, Software Engineer, did not hesitate to clean a few places of Horton Plain. There a few places that you could put your garbage. This garbage vessel is very high, hence wild animals can not peep and eat these.

 5. Do NOT Ignore These Foreigners or Locals

You meet a lot of Foreigners or Local crowds face to face as they have taken the wrong direction.

From the distance, you can see, they are breathless or panting 🙂 as they have worked more than 6-7 km and would have climbed a couple of hills 🙂

Usually, they just want to finish the trail.

When they meet you, do not hesitate to smile with them or some encouraging word such “Oh you have come to end of the trail” or “Do not worry, it is just a plain work” or “There are NO hills climbing, you can finish it fast” 🙂

A lot of Foreigners asked me several times this “How many km to finish the trail” and “Are there any more hills to climb” 🙂
