Trek





I went to Ooty during my summer holidays. I had gone there with my cousins. We were staying in a place called Destiny’s Farm.





One morning, we decided to go for a trek in the hills. So we took some water bottles and snacks. Then we left. We all chatted and laugh as we climbed up the hill. We saw a herd of bisons distance away. So we quickly went the other way, in case the bisons heard or smelt us and came charging at us. I hoped that we could see animals or something very interesting other than bisons. But sadly we could not find anything like that. Midway up the hill, we saw a few deers. We took photos and videos. Then suddenly a deer started running so fast that I thought that a leopard was chasing it. But then I figured out that is was running away from us. They would have thought we were hunters with guns coming to kill them. Soon I got tired and could not walk anymore. We had already walked one hour and I could not walk anymore. So my father and I sat down and waited for the others to go to the peak and come back. And by the time they came back we had started to walk back. So we just waved to them and kept walking down.


The next day, I did not want to go for a trek. So I stayed back in my cousins room and waited. Since my cousins were asleep, I just watched some movies and read some books. I did not not even notice that two hours had pasted so quickly! But when my parents and others got back, I was so excited to learn about their discoveries. The showed pictures of a bloody bone. The bone was a bison’s leg. We think there was some leopard attack and a leopard ate a bison. I would had felt disgusted and looked away if I was there! They also heard some growls by the bushes so they had to take a different route which was very sludgy and slippery. I was scared when I heard about the bone and the growl.


However, I had a lovely experience during the trek! Treks are tiring but they are still enjoyable.
