Six Indian mountain destinations where trekkers can hire ponies

Mountains are beautiful, but walking up them can be very tiring.

Some paths are very long and steep, especially for pilgrims going to holy places.

Older people may find these walks too hard.

In India, there is a helpful option: you can hire a pony or a mule.

People there call a mule a 'khachhar'.

The animal carries you over the hardest parts of the trail.

It costs a bit more money than walking.

But it makes the trip much easier and more fun.

The article tells us about six mountain places in India where you can do this.

One of them is Amarnath, a famous holy cave shrine.
