Trekking in Nepal means following trails which have been used for communiction and trade for centuries - like the Salt Route along the Kali Gandaki, which brought salt down from TIbet to India.
These great Himalayas, this abodes of snows, offer the trekker three major attractions: the scenery (breathtaking mountains) the people (like Sherpa and Tamang) and the flora and fauna (Nepal has one of the largest divesity of bird species in the world).
Some treks last a day, some considerably longer. For the very popuar Everest base camp and Annapurna circuit you must allow about three weeks.
All our treks are managed by a team of professionally trained Sherpas with the Sherpa Sirdar responsible for all aspects of the running of the trek. We are 'eco-friendly, careful of our footprints, and ensure we benefit the local communities we pass through.
