Trekking

Nepal has something new and extraordinary to offer in terms of geography, culture, and history. Besides the tallest mountain in the world, Mount Everest, Nepal is home to eight of the highest mountains in the world. Additionally, there are numerous trekking routes through unexplored valleys and alpine meadows.

The Everest region is a trekking paradise that has the tallest mountain in the world. For trekking lovers, the Everest Base Camp Trek is a must-do at least once in a lifetime. Additionally, other routes like the Gokyo Valley Trek and the Everest High Pass Trek are exciting alternatives to trek to glacial lakes with incredible panoramic Himalayan views. Starting from Lukla, the Everest Base Camp Trek (EBC) takes you through the heart of the Khumbu Valley, passing legendary Sherpa villages like Namche Bazaar and Tengboche Monastery, with stunning views of Mount Everest, Lhotse, and Ama Dablam.

The Annapurna Region is a must-visit for those interested in cultural and nature exploration. The Annapurna Circuit and Annapurna Base Camp Trek will take you through the traditional Gurung and Thakali villages. Along with the awe-inspiring view of the sunrise over the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri ranges, the Ghorepani Poonhill Trek is an amazing short trek. The Annapurna Circuit Trek is a favorite among trekkers which has the most splendid views of peaks including Annapurna, Dhaulagiri, and Machhapuchhre (Fistail peak).

One of the most remarkable trekking places in Nepal is The Langtang Region, also referred to as the “Valley of Glaciers.” For those looking for a less crowded but equally rewarding trek, the Langtang Valley Trek and Tamang Heritage trail  offer enriched Tibetan-influenced cultures and a sacred lake like Gosaikunda.

For those looking for remote and off-the-beaten route, The Manaslu Circuit Trek and Tsum Valley Trek offer an Untouched Himalayan adventure with awe-inspiring landscapes, ancient monasteries, and solitude trails. Also, the Kanchenjuga Base Camp Trek, Makalu Base Camp Trek, and Dolpo Treks are equally admirable and lead you to unarguably the best parts of Nepal, which are pristine, remote, and unspoiled by humanity where you can enjoy real mountain nature to the fullest.

Another stunning trekking destination is the Langtang Region, which is also known as the “Valley of Glaciers,” which holds remarkable trekking opportunities along with the Langtang Valley Trek, which is known to be set in pristine wilderness and breathtaking views of Himalaya, Tibetan-influenced cultures, and sacred lakes like Gosaikunda.

The Mustang Region is the perfect combination of an ethnic region, forming the ancient crown of Mustang. The Upper Mustang Trek takes you to a forbidden region with medieval cave house, walled monasteries, and desert-like terrain.

For those who are adventurous and prefer to experience the beauty of nature in a short time, Nepal offers unique options like the Kathmandu Valley Trek, Shivapuri Hiking, and Chisapani Nagarkot Dhulikhel Trek. These treks are ideal for short adventures due to their stunning views, making them perfect for people with time limitations.

Trekking in Nepal is not only about reaching the destination but also essentially about absorbing the warmth of the Himalayas, the people living there, and some of the remarkably beautiful places on the world. Indeed, Nepal is the land of adventures for travelers from all over the world.
