Off The Beaten Trail (Nepal Camping Treks) |
Since I started this profession, as a freelance guide I
have been putting my best efforts to seek and introduce
my clients to least visited areas of Nepal Himalayas.
These treks are away from the more frequented trails and
provide a wilderness experience in both natural and
cultural aspect. You can observe the remote mountain
villages of Nepal where people are surviving by growing
their own food, untouched by modern civilization, no
politics and they have a quite happy life with their own
distinctive culture and traditional that might be very
interesting & unique to observe for foreigners. Actually
these treks give you a very special experience of the
real Nepal and also this help to develop these poor
areas economically. In some remote land of Nepal there
are no tea house/lodges on the trail. So the fully
organized camping trek is only an option.
I have accumulated a variety of treks to “ Off The
Beaten Tracks” of Nepal with detailed itinerary below.
