Trekking in Nepal

A trek can be a short one-day hike to a mountain –top or ridge for spectacular views of the mountains. It can be a three or four day excursion further north for a closer look at the Himalayan range, or it can be a month long walk in the shadow of the mighty peaks. The extent to which one exerts oneself is completely variable. In choosing a trek,

many factors must be considered. The most important factor among them is the time available. Some trekking takes a minimum number of days and some regions are not recommended for less than 10 days is not advised. The individual strength/ability

and budget are also important factors. Certain treks offers display spectacular flora and fauna. The time of year is the most important factor to be considered. Certain treks, interesting at a time of the year will be difficult or even impossible at an other time like Round Annapurna Trek, Dolpo Trek. It should be kept in mind that the tea house trek is possible only along the most popular trekking trails. They are Everest, Langtang and Annapurna. It will be cheaper to go on a teahouse trek but will be heavily crowded during the tourist season.

 Western Region (Annapurna Region)

Eastern Region (Everest Region)

Far Eastern Region (Kanchanjanga Region)
