Everest from the air |
Trekking is the most popular activity in Nepal and is the best
way to experience the Himalayas. Most treks follow well-trodden
foot trails that have been in use for hundreds of years, connecting
mountain villages and hamlets. Popular treks include the Annapurna
Circuit and Everest base camp, while more serious mountaineers
might attempt an expedition to some of the highest peaks in the
world, including Mt Everest itself. 'Teahouse' treks follow the
most popular trekking routes in the entire Annapurna region,
Langtang area and the Everest region, and allow walkers to make
their own way from village to village, carrying minimal equipment
and relying on 'teahouses' for food and accommodation. It is also
possible to hire a guide and/or porters for these expeditions.
Organised, all-inclusive treks include porters, guides, cooks,
tents, equipment and transport.
