1. Boil all water prior to consuming.  This is known to kill all harmful bacteria. This is the method, which we provided to trekkers using the facilities of the guest and teahouses.
   
2. Alternatively, use an Iodine solution, either tablets or drops.  This will kill most water borne bacteria (not 100%) and has been used widely by most trekkers effectively in this region.  Iodine is particularly handy when not in a lodge and additional water is required.
