The best way to explore in depth, Nepal's unbeatable combination of authentic natural beauty and traditional cultural is by walking on ones' own two feet, allowing ones own rhythm to blend in with that of your surroundings. Presently this is known as trekking. What better way, in fact in most places it’s the only way, to explore the dramatic contrasts in elevations, climatic condition, habitations and cultures that Nepal has to offer?
Hygienic and nutritious meals are prepared by our experienced cooks and are served in our enclosed dining tent with tables and campstools or in a local dining room. Our private guides lead the way, explaining the sites and traditions and natural history of the area. Local staff handles all the camp chores.
You walk with a daypack, typically containing your camera, water bottle and small personal items. Locally hired pack animals or porters will transport the rest of the equipment, along with camping gear and foodstuffs. This is a good source of income for local village economies.
It is important for you to have basic physically fitness, enough to successfully complete and enjoy the treks. Each day you walk for less 5-7hrs. Good cardiovascular conditioning is an important part of having an enjoyable trek. Before the trek, you should be running or walking with backpack and boots on, and using the Stairmaster or similar equipment to improve fitness.
