Haji Public School is already in the middle Himalayas at 7,500ft ASL. But the entire village is on a steep slope so no plain flats to play.
For picnics, we go a further 3,000ft up (~3 hour trek) to this beautiful high altitude meadow called Sraayan, where there is enough plain ground to horse-ride, play cricket and just run around freely.
Here's a slice of the journey.
Day picnic, and back in the evening.
Kids age 8 and up do this easily.

Most excellent fun, clean air (if slightly lesser O2), good food, great company, girls and boys and everyone playing freely and being silly, and of course, unmatched leg workout day, with over 5 hours of walking up and down on proper Himalayan trails.
