About Our Nepal Treks
General information on our Nepal treks
A
Day on the Trail
A trek day starts around 6am with a steaming mug of tea, soon followed by a bowl of warm water to wash with. After packing your personal gear into the duffel and daypack, you have breakfast. Meanwhile the trek crew break camp and pack the equipment. The day's trek usually starts around 8am.
Trekkers walk at their own pace with a lead and a "sweep" sherpa providing support throughout. The morning walk before stopping for lunch lasts about three hours. Our lunch-sites are in peaceful neighborhood (with great views wherever possible!) near a water source. (On lodge treks, we stop at a wayside lodge). Lunch is a light, hot meal, and a relaxing break for about 1½ hours. After lunch we resume hiking for another two to three hours; camp (or lodge) is usually reached between 3-4pm. Tea and biscuits are served while the sherpas pitch camp.
The evening meal is served around 6:30pm in the dining tent lit with candles and furnished with light campstools and tables. Meals on lodge-treks are served in the dining hall. After dinner, the trek leader or sirdar will brief trekkers on the following day's trek. After this, you might want to retire to your sleeping tents or linger on exchanging stories with other trekkers. We provide top-quality camping equipment. A toilet tent is pitched at a stone's throw from every camp. Basic toilet facilities are available at every lodge.
The pace of the trek is relaxed and trekkers have time to see, photograph and explore the countryside. On days when we arrive at the day's stop early or mid-afternoon, those who like can opt for exploratory hikes in the area. Anyone who is healthy and enjoys the outdoors will certainly enjoy our treks.
