Other Trekking adventures 

Annapurna Circuit
The Annapurna Circuit is some of the most inspiring and challenging trekking. Trekking between some of the world’s tallest mountains, through diverse climatic zones from tropics to alpine peaks, passing  diverse mountain villages. This treks take between 16 and 2o days.

Manaslu Circuit
This trek is now a great tea house trek, some call it the best all round trek. It's a great alternative to the Annapurna Circuit. Camping is not required unless you go off the beaten track. Depending on the chosen route it takes up from 14 to 22 days.


Poon Hill
If you only got a short time in Nepal but want to both admire the famous Himalayan Range and experience Nepal mountain culture, this trek is a good option. It passes through quaint villages, up many stairs, between jungles and over rivers, and before ultimately ending up at altitude (3,200m), with your head amongst the tallest mountains in the world. It really is the perfect way to ease yourself into trekking in Nepal. From Poon Hill you can enjoy  wonderful panoramic views of some of the highest Himalayan mountains, including Dhaulagiri, Nilgiri, Machhapuchhare, Annapurna II and Lamjung. 

Langtang Valley / Tamang Heritage
Trek through the unexplored parts of the Langtang National Park and deep into the Tamang hinterland. This trek is all about immersing yourself in local culture, learning about one of the oldest tribes in Nepal, the Tamang people, as well as witnessing some incredible Himalayan mountain scenery.

Mustang and Upper Mustang
If you speak to any local Nepali, they say Mustang is there favourite hiking area. Bordering Tibet, Mustang’s desert-like terrain. It’s a mystical and culturally rich region less frequented by tourists, but hiking here is well worth the effort.

Mohare Danda Trek  ‘off the beaten track’
Alternative to other popular treks in the Annapurna range, Mohare Danda takes in very similar scenery to Poon Hill, with half the amount trekkers. Expect to see the highest peaks of the Annapurna mountain range: Dhaulagiri 1, Dhaulagiri 2, Daulaghiri 3, Annapurna south and the incredible Fish Tail.

Dolpo Region 'off the beaten track'
Dolpo is the most beautiful and least developed district of Nepal. Travelers have rarely visited this ancient area because of the high passes. Both the lower and higher Dolpo trekking pass through beautiful valleys, gigantic mountains, pine forests, Rhododendrons and Oaks. The customs and traditions are quite similar to those of Tibet. The main highlights of the trek are the mystical beauty of this region, the spectacular landscape, mesmerizing Shey Phoksundo lake, isolated villages of Ringmo and the centuries-old monasteries. This trekking is more expensive as you need a special permit to visit this area which is 50 $ a day and you need to fly in and out.


Everest Base Camp - Extension to Gokyo Lakes
This 13 days, 130km round trip to Everest Base Camp is one of the most popular treks in the world. Expect to be challenged, especially during the final two days, when the altitude and colder temperatures start. If you have the time, we suggest to extend your trek with 3 extra days to visit the Gokyo Lakes, a set of incredible turquoise glacial lakes surrounded by some of the tallest peaks in the world. It’s incredibly beautiful and worth the hike. This hike can get crowded (not recommended) during the peak months from mid March to mid May and late September to mid November.
CLIMATE
Nepal has five seasons: spring, summer, monsoon, autumn and winter. October and November, is the best time to visit Nepal, as there will be sunny days, and clear skies. Between the months of March and May, you can enjoy the best of the spring season. Spring is the time for rhododendrons to bloom. Even in December and January, during winter in day time you can have sunny clear skies and brilliant mountain views. 
​
