Everest Base Camp Trekking | Everest Base Camp Trekking Details | Everest Base Camp Trekking Price,Cost | Everest Base Camp Trekking Itinerary

            Everest Base Camp Trek – 15 days…at your pace
A classic trek that takes you through the heart of Sherpa country right to the foothills of the
mighty Mt. Everest….with trails that lead to splendid wonders, serene monasteries & majestic landscapes….
Designed for those wanting the 'classic' Everest trek where you find Sherpa culture, and chances to click some of the best pictures in the world. The adventure also takes you through challenging terrain that includes glacial moraines and a steep climb up Kala Patthar where the adrenalin really goes into overdrive. As you hike up to Everest Base Camp, expect some 3-4 hours hiking every day of the trip, but be prepared for some longer days on the return journey. A reasonable level of fitness is required. After exploring historical Kathmandu, we take a short flight to the hillside village of Lukla (2800m). As we move through the splendid mix and eye-catching vegetation of Sagarmatha National Park, we trek to the Sherpa 'capital' of Namche Bazaar. This is an interesting, bustling and friendly town where amazingly, even at such an altitude, almost everything under the skies can be found here. Namche was formerly a trading post between Nepal and Tibet.We allow a day's acclimatization hereabouts and then move on to the beautiful Thyangboche Monastery. At this peaceful landmark, we find ourselves amongst the Mani walls, prayer flags and chortens & soon realize we are in the shadows of the magnificent Everest massif and Ama Dablam, where the views are breathtakingly dumbfounding.
The trek from Tengboche ascends slowly but steadily to Dingboche, Lobuche and finally Gorak Shep, advancing above the tree line into more rugged and moonscape-like surroundings. Gorak Shep, at 5100m is in fact the highest point that we will lodge at, and we take our time to reach this altitude after getting well acclimatized. Naturally, we leave our packs at Gorek Shep to make an afternoon incursion to Everest Base Camp, passing spectacular glacial forms and enjoying the triumph of having made it all the way! A trip that will surely go down into our dairies…..

03/12/2013
Trekking in the Annapurna Region
The Annapurna region is based towards the north of Central Nepal. This area is known to be the most popular and major trekking destination in Nepal. According to a recent survey by the Trekkers Paradise Group (TPG-USA) Annapurna region has been recognized as one of the world’s best trekking trails to hike on. More than 40,000 tourists annually visit this area. The Annapurna trekking region consists of peaks Annapurna I, II, III, IV, those of Annapurna South peaks, Mt. Dhaulagiri and several other peaks. The major highlights when trekking in this region are the ancient mid-western salt route settlements of Manang, Thorong La pass between Nepal and Tibet, Muktinath Temple and the deepest gorge of world Kali Gandaki. The Gateway to the Annapurna trekking region is the famous city of Pokhara.
Mustang, or Lo Manthang, the desert plateau located in the upper valley of the River Kali Gandaki, and to the north of the main Himalayan range also falls in this region. Tourist access to Mustang is controlled to help retain its exclusiveness. The highlights of the trek include the visit to the Mustang Palace, the visit to Lo Manthang and pony rides up to the Nepal-Tibet border.
The region is said to have seven ethnic groups living and working in this area, from Hindu farmers to Tibetan Lamas. The most prominent ethnic groups of Annapurna region are Gurungs, Thakali and Manangba. Due to the extremes of elevation the region contains a remarkable diversity of flora; from sub-tropical lowland forests of oak, bamboo and rhododendron in the south to the high alpine meadows and windswept desert plateaus in the north, most bordering Tibet. The Animals found here are pika, blue sheep and Himalayan Tahr.
The well known trekking routes of this region are Jomsom, Annapurna Circuit and Annapurna Base Camp, Sikles, Lamjung, Dhaulagiri, Upper Mustang and within the Pokhara area. The best time to visit is in spring and autumn. Unlike other parts of Nepal, even the monsoon months are ideal to visit to Upper Mustang that falls in the rain shadow area. Most trekking routes in the Annapurna region are well serviced by teahouses or better known as tea house lodges.
Whatever the areas of the trek chosen, it is most likely that Pokhara would be either the starting or ending point of your trek in the Annapurna region.

Our Review | Review of Everest Base Camp Trek | Recent Information about EBC

03/12/2013,
Currently we have arrange Everest Base Camp Trekking for 14days so we were very much successful to arrange the things to complete trekking operation our guide were in very good position so please take look what our client said about the trip with us…….
I really wanted to do some trekking while I was in Nepal, but I was alone. It is very difficult to know if you can trust the people when you want to do the trekking. But I joined this nice small company Higher Limits Trek with Gopal. I really liked him from the beginning and I booked the Everest Base Camp Trekking.
My guide was Puru, a very experienced nice guide who I recommend to everybody. He spoke good English and was nice company. Because it was monsoon season I was prepared for bad weather, I really wanted to see the Mount Everest, but because of the weather that may have been a problem but at the day of the Kalapather, the sky was blue and I had the nicest views I have ever seen. It was really beautiful!!
It was the best experience from my while in Nepal!
You should not doubt about it and just do it!

Langtang Region Trekking | Langtang Trekking Routes | Lanhtang Hiking | Gosaikunda Hike | Langtang Valley Trekking

03/12/2013
Langtang Region Trekking 
The Langtang area is found toward the north of Kathmandu Valley. The landscape here is very nice, and the trek more adventurous as the area is visited by lesser hikers. To the west of Langtang is Ganesh Himal with a range of 6000 to 7000 meters. The Gosainkunda and Helambu region lies to its south; these can be combined with Langtang to make adventure programs from 7 days to 21 days. The area was created as Nepal's first Himalayan National Park in 1971; it is inhabited by Tamang and Sherpa people whose religious practices, language and dress are more similar to those of Tibet than to the traditions of their neighbors in the middle hills. The forests in the region have temperate and sub-alpine vegetation. Wildlife includes migratory birds, deer, monkey, Tahr and Pika. The best time for trekking through Langtang area is spring and autumn. Most of the trekking routes in Helambu and Langtang are well served with teahouses making independent trekking comfortable for hikers & backpackers. But there are no such facilities in the Ganesh Himal area or Ganja La area. A journey to the Langtang valley offers chances to explore the Tamang villages, climb small peaks and to visit glaciers at a more comfortable altitude than tougher trekking regions
Getting in to Helambu is particularly easy and quick. Sundarijal, which is one of the most convenient starting points, is only an hour’s drive from Kathmandu. Other possible road routes are at Budhanilkantha, Kakani and four hour drive away at melamchi Pul. For Langtang and Ganesh Himal choice is a limited drive to Dhunche in Rasuwa district. The road then continues to Syabrubesi from wherer Ganesh Himal and Langtang treks can start. This is a very interesting area to trek in.

Trekking through high alpine country in the Everest Region…
After the conquering of the highest mountain peak in the world, Mt. Everest, by Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Sherpa, the Everest region has become an unfathomable fascination for all people making it one of the most popular trekking regions to be known in Nepal.
The Everest or the Upper Khumbu region has within its grasp the highest wildlife reserve in the world, the Sagarmatha National Park. This park has been listed as a World Heritage Site in 1979 by UNESCO for its distinctive natural and cultural uniqueness.
Trekking to the Everest region takes you on charismatic trails where you can expand the hidden splendors of the Everest region, from the rhododendron forests to the pine forests, from the snow fed rivers to spectacular glaciers, from the lucid lakes to high passes and from the vivacious Sherpa villages to the charming Buddhist monasteries. Trekking this region not only gives you the opportunity to get a close view of the world’s highest mountain peak, the Everest, but also offers you splendid sights of other peaks such as Lhotse, Nuptse, Ama Dablam, Thamserku, Tawache and many other unnamed peaks.
Trekking in the ‘Khumbu’ can be a very special and unique experience only beheld by the trekker who ceaselessly seeks for the challenge that comes with adventure. Join a Higher Limits Trek & Expedition adventure group and experience some of the most beautiful trails in the world; it’s a holiday you will never ever forget for a lifetime for more info click at: http://www.nepalholiday.travel/

Langtang Kynjin Gompa Trekking | Langtang Valley Trekking | Kyanjin Ri | Langtang Village

03/12/2013
Recently we arranged trekking trip to Langtang Kyanjin Gompa for American guy about 8days after his experience with us what he had to say about us please take look.


Taken by: Higher Limit from Kynjin Gompa 

I checked with many trekking companies before setting on Higher Limits. From the beginning I felt comfortable with Gopi and the staff. We talked for almost two hours about trekking. He took a lot of time explaining rates and itineraries.  He also provided the best price of the ten or twelve companies I checked with. I have to say I have no complaints with anything. The guide, Janu, was very knowledgeable about the culture, people,trails, mountains and things not related to trekking and Nepal. The food was good, the weather cooperated, the accommodation was comfortable and clean, and the views were better than expected. I highly recommend Higher Limits and Janu as a guide while I could have trekked independently for cheaper I can’t imagine all the knowledge and information I would have missed without a guide. I felt safe, comfortable and very happy the entire trip. I look forward to my next trek with Janu and Higher Limits Trek & Expedition Pvt Ltd.

Trekking in Nepal | Nepal Trekking Information

Trekking in Nepal
Trekking frequently refers to multi-day hiking trips through rural, often rugged territory. Many people who are trekkers engage in longer trips through entire regions of the world, using trekking as a way of getting from place to place. It can be included with a number of other outdoor sports, such as rock climbing backpacking.
Trekking is different from other sorts of travel for a few different reasons. It tends to be less-structured than other sort of travel, as weather conditions and topography help influence travel plans more than plane flights or hotel availability. As travelers move on foot through often-rural areas, trekking gives travelers an up-close view of unbelievable scenery. Many trekkers travel through isolated areas, giving them an experience much different than those who travel in organized groups to more-popular destinations. It often allows them to interact with nature, doing anything from climbing a rock wall to navigating across a mountain or entire mountain range for more details please follow the link http://www.nepalholiday.travel/

Hiking in Nepal | Nepal Hiking Information | Hike in Nepal | Hiking

Hiking in Nepal
Day hiking is an outdoor activity where individuals or groups walk on trails during the day without setting up camp for overnight stays. Hikers are able to access more trails and parks by walking during the day rather than planning multi-day trips in one park or area. This approach to hiking is special by casual hikers as well as outdoor enthusiasts who might be concerned about trail safety. An important issue in day hiking is the excessive heat and glare from the sun. Day hikers can pack lightly for their excursions by eliminating sleeping bags, tents, and flashlights.
Local, regional, and national parks sometimes offer limited access to hiking trails. These limits include no nighttime or weekend hours where hikers might be endangered on the trail. A park might also schedule trail maintenance and repair during off-season weekend hours. Day hiking allows an individual to walk miles through a park generally without limitations. Outdoor lovers can travel to several parks within a region to conduct day hikes instead of focusing on a single park. For more details http://www.higherlimitstrek.com .
