Buying mineral water bottles from shops situated on the trails is one possibility for drinking water. Carrying reusable water bottles and various forms of water purification agents is another possibility where tap or stream water can be purified before drinking. Water can be refilled in the bottles at the teahouses or in the streams or rivers available abundantly on the trail. When you are at your lodge, we recommend you to drink boiled water. Those who insist on drinking mineral water only should be ready to pay some extra cash as the price of bottled water rises as you go higher up.
