The itineraries described are generally for group departures. Tailor-made arrangements can differ from these by individual choice. It is possible to arrange longer or shorter, softer or harder treks in these areas, also trekking peaks and community service expeditions. We can make all arrangements for private groups and expeditions and will individually tailor an itinerary to suit your requirements.

Nepal has seven world heritage sites within Kathmandu and the valley area and together with the rich and diverse culture offers many fine opportunities for the traveller who does not wish to trek in the high mountains. Nepal and its people have a lot to offer, we can arrange all types of tours and travels to give you the best of Nepalese culture. Please contact us for more detailed information.

Nepal

Nepal offers the best trekking in the world and all of this is available to you with our specialised Tailor-made services that can make you an itinerary to all regions of the country. The Solu Khumbu has many quiet areas as well as the more popular treks, this region merges with the Hinku and Hongu valleys in the East where the Arun Valley opens many possibilities including trekking to Makalu or into the Khumbu. The Rolwaling Valley and its trekking peaks is a demanding but remote and beautiful unspoilt region; Mustang, the hidden valley to the north of the Annapurnas; Manaslu to the east and Dhaulagiri to the west. The far west of the country offers remote possibilities in Dolpo with restricted access to the beautiful RaRa Lake area. In the far east, Kanchenjunga has an isolation that appeals, this hard area offers some fine treks. One of the more accessible trekking peaks may appeal to clubs or organisations, or small groups of friends.

In the main trekking areas there are also other trekking possibilities open to the independant party to explore.
