Level of grade – Strenuous Adventure

Trekking in Nepal offers the challenge for everyone. Days may involve a long duration of walking (6-9 hours) and can be physically demanding with the altitude exceeding 5,000m. Anyone with positive frame of mind can do this, but people are recommended to prepare themselves accordingly.

Food and accommodation

Lodges along the way provide good accommodation and good choice of well-prepared meals. It is advisable to bring your own sleeping bag, as especially during the height of season, bedding can be in short supply.

Safety/Acclimatization

Safety is our foremost priority! Our staff is constantly alert to assessing the situation to make sure that you are safe and enjoying the trip.

Altitude problems can be life threatening if you ignore it. This is a high altitude trek going over a series of passes that are over 5,000m. Our trip itinerary has been designed in a way that allows you to have ample time to help acclimatizes at high altitude. Our guides are experienced to act accordingly to the gravity of the mountain sickness. The best remedy for AMS is to go down, as whatever the drugs we use, will only buy time! So never ignore the symptoms and please talk to your guide or tour leader if you have headaches, feel sick or feel off your food. Khunde and Pheriche have good hospitals in case of any emergencies.

Season or best time to trek

This trek can be taken through out the year as the monsoon is not very active and mountain views are great. Though  spring and summer months from March to  May and October to November are great time to trek . The mountain views are great and th weather is settled most of time.  Winter months are also okay to trek if one is ready to take the extreme temperature.
