A hillside mountain trail on a pilgrimage route, with a dry-stone retaining wall on the left and steep forested slopes behind. Several pilgrims in saffron and orange clothing climb and stand along the path, some in orange shawls, others in mixed everyday dress. On the right, porters and pilgrims carry bundles and a wooden pole across their shoulders, and a bearded man in a dark jacket walks along the track. A tall metal pole rises among the trees. The scene suggests a trek of many devotees and porters.
