Choose a seat in the front of the tour bus so as not to feel dizzy while ascending up the mountain. The road uphill is unpaved and winding, but you will experience less movement sitting toward the front of the bus. If you haven't done so already, take an altitude sickness pill (acetazolamide) before the bus begins to move.
Remain seated in the seat as the bus gradually ascends the mountain.
Close your eyes if you begin to experience dizziness while the bus is in motion, and give yourself time to acclimate to the altitude. Passengers whose eyes are darting from one object to another while in motion experience heightened levels of dizziness or nausea.
Start your hike slowly. If your tour is moving faster, inform the tour guide that you will be a little farther behind. Ask him to make frequent stops. Use the buddy system if you start to fall behind the rest of the group. Solo hikers might want to seek out other solo hikers for support.
Hydrate as you hike. Pack plenty of water or other hydrating liquids for your hike.
Stop hiking if you begin to feel sick. Sit down on the lowest part of the ground, and take deep breaths as you wait for your equilibrium to balance.
Inhale and exhale consistently to ensure your body is receiving enough oxygen and omitting the right amount of carbon dioxide.
Lean on a walking stick to help alleviate some of the stain of hiking up hills or slopes.
Remove layers of clothing if you still continue to feel sick to reduce your body heat. Maintain a normal body temperature if possible as you add or remove layers of clothing along the hike. Wearing comfortable walking or hiking shoes will help with the rugged landscape.
