Nepal is not just trekking

Nepal has much to offer

It is where you…

Nepal boasts the most scenic and diverse white-water experiences on the planet. From short trips for beginners to long trips lasting days, the trip takes rafters from the Himalayan region to the (tarai) plains. There are more than a dozen rivers for rafting.

Explore hidden canyons in the Himalayas for the ultimate wet and wild canyoning experience! Coming down a watery canyon by either abseiling, jumping or sliding through breathtaking steep canyon walls and waterfalls into deep pools of water below.

Nepal is just the country for adventure seekers. Beginning in the Kathmandu valley, there are endless possibilities for bikers. Dirt trails up and down the valleys, the higher you climb, the better the view.

Nepal is a bird watchers’ paradise with national parks and conservation areas making up a large part of its territory. Nepal’s unique geography has created habitats for many rare species of birds from Himalayan griffon, Himalayan Monal, Cheer Pheasant, Satyr Tragopan in the hidden valleys of the world’s highest mountain peaks to the rarest bird of the world, Bengal florican, Sarus crane in the plain of Terai.

In recent years, Nepal has become the destination for those who are seeking for spiritual experience and the meditation tourists are nearly equal to those who come for trekking in Nepal. The pilgrims coming to Nepal also come to attend meditation and yoga courses at the ashrams and monasteries in Nepal.

Featured Treks

Upper Mustang Trek

Mustang is one of the few places in the world where the lifestyle has remained unchanged for many years. This is because the region, until recently, was inaccessible to outsiders. Isolation has helped the people of Mustang to maintain their lifestyle and heritage for centuries. Hidden behind the majestic Himalayan ranges of Dhaulagiri and Annapurna, Mustang is filled with beautiful trekking zones.

Royal Trek

The Royal Trek-Nepal Himalaya is the best trek for those who want to experience village life and striking mountain views in a relatively short period of time. This trek is one of the shortest treks that follow a shrub like path along the foothills of Annapurna, north of the Pokhara valley. The Royal Trek is so-named because Prince Charles and his 90 person entourage had explored this route in the early eighties.

About Nepal

  • Proximity to Kathmandu
  • Fewer Tourists
  • Experience the warmest hospitality with a Teahouse trek
  • Breathtaking Mountain Views with unique Flora & Fauna
  • For the local culture

The name Nepal conjures a mental image of Buddhist monks, Hindus, mountains, and is known for its rich culture and contains 8 out of 10 of the highest peaks in the world. The country of Nepal is also known for being located in the Himalayas and a magnet for travelers, trekkers, and mountain climbers who want to challenge themselves by climbing Everest.

When you are planning your Nepal holiday, whether for a tour, trekking, hiking, or simply want to see Annapurna, Everest, and the rest of the Himalayas, allow yourself the time to fully enjoy your visit to Nepal and take your time. If you don’t there will be so much that you miss and don’t see.

When people think of safari, they mainly think of Africa. In Nepal, there are three conservation areas, three wildlife reserves, ten national parks, one hunting reserve, and ten wetlands. There are rhinos, elephants, Bengal tigers, hyenas, Indian Bison and more. There are even some birds, such as the Himalayan Monal which can only be found high in the Himalayas.

It may surprise you to know that you don’t need to be super fit to trek in Nepal and the average person should be fine with only a little training needed.

Fitness really isn’t a major issue the toughest part of trekking in Nepal is the altitude, which isn’t something you can prepare for and strikes everyone in different ways.

If you have concerns, focus on the following:

• Poon Hill Trek with Chitwan Jungle Safari and City Tour
• Langtang Valley Trek
• Mardi Himal

If you can walk 10 kilometres each day you will be fine.

You will need to walk up some steep hills but if you are not carrying a pack most people are capable and the longer you walk the fitter you become.

The distance you walk each day is dependant on how much time you have to spend in Nepal.

With a ‘tea house’ trek you do not need to carry a lot of things, warm clothes, waterproofs, sleeping bag and toiletries (your big bag will be carried by a porter) but foodwise, you will be stopping at a tea house (similar to a bed and breakfast) for lunch and overnight where you can purchase your meals.

The biggest issue is altitude sickness and not fitness but by taking extra time to ascend we can minimise the risk.

If you decide to go trekking in Nepal you can hire the gear needed when you arrive so you do not need to buy gear you are not likely to use again unless you return to Nepal.

The most popular times for trekking in Nepal are late September to November and March to May but it does depend on where you want to go.

All our treks are with a guide who will arrange all necessary permits.
