Nepal is home to some of the most spectacular mountain scenery in the world, and trekking is a fantastic way of getting closer to these wonderful views. The trekking experience also gives you a fascinating insight into a way of life far removed from roads, electricity and many trappings of modern life; a place where religion - generally Buddhist, Hindu and the animist Bon faith - is the central focus. We can organise a variety of treks (most of them less strenuous and more luxurious than the word 'trek' typically conjures up) from day-walks to fortnight-long hikes, with a wide range of accommodation from high-quality tents off the beaten track to comfortable lodges in more accessible areas.
All the arrangements, no matter what type of trek you choose, are private. This means that you can walk at your own pace, ask questions of your expert local guide, stop to take pictures, or simply take a little rest. Trekking in Nepal may sound strenuous, and there is no doubt that it would not suit everybody, but for any lover of the outdoors the experience cannot be beaten. Trekking really can be done in a very comfortable manner, and you don’t need to be super-fit or athletic to do it – we can tailor a trek to suit your individual abilities and requirements.
