Trekking in Nepal is an intense cultural experience as well as an exploration of one of the world's most hiker-friendly people , spectacular environment and great mountain. If you are an experienced trekker used to empty trails, you'll be surprised. These are not pathway designed for recreational use, but a working transportation network for goods and people. Expect to see plenty of traffic on many of the route and enjoy the chance to interact with the people, and explore their cultures, along the way. Caravans of laden mules or yaks are good subjects for your camera and rest breaks at the teahouses or small mountain villages are chances to meet fellow travelers from around the globe or from just up the valley. There are two contras-ting approaches to trekking in Nepal. One approach is to go on an organized trip where our crew bring along tent, cooking equipment and foodstuff. The another approach independently minded opt for teahouse trekking, moving from village to village along mostly well-trodden routes, enjoying the lodges with their mix of foreigner and locals. These are ideal for discovering more remote areas and learning about the varied cultures and people of Nepal first hand.
A valid permit is required for certain areas, which we will obtain upon your arrival. We will require two working days and two passports size photographs. Permits are not required for the Annapurna, Everest and Langtang treks. However, conservation fees are required for these national parks.
Disposal of rubbish:
We recommend that each trekker have keep a small bag during the course of the trip. Each morning a small fire is lit for burnable rubbish. Any non-burnable or non-biodegradable rubbish should be carried back to Kathmandu and disposed appropriately.
Money and valuable securities:
Always carry Nepalese rupees in small bills on your trek. The amount to be cared depends on the area and the duration of the trek. A guideline for this will be presented during our trek briefing. Money will only be required for the purchase of soft/hard bottled drinks and souvenirs along the way. Other money and valuables should be kept in a safe deposit box in your hotel in Kathmandu.
