The Trek

This trek starts after a scenic drive to Chautara in the northeast of Kathmandu. It’s beautiful to experience waking up in nature close to the majestic mountains. The morning walk can last for some 4-5 hours roughly though it entirely depends on any individual, who could make it less or make it more too, just take it easy. Lunch will be served in the mid-day and the trek continues to the campsite for another 2-3 hrs, where hot drinks will be welcome you. Arriving at the campsite, refresh, find the tent and enjoy the hot drinks and relax. The dinner will be served in the evening before getting to bed for your sweet dream. And so this routine goes on every day but in different perspective always.
