Why you SHOULD consider trekking with Hike Nepal?
Top 10 reasons to engage us: |
|
|
-
Hike Nepal is independently owned and operated by myself (Binod Mahat). So I will personally be your guide when you book your arrangement with me. I commit my time to be with you during your trek. Other companies will arrange a guide for you, and depending on their schedules, you may not always receive the best-qualified guide.
-
I have many years of experience as a trekking guide and tour operator and I feel that our relationship, as a guide/trekker begins with our initial contacts. The emails we exchange in preparation for your trip allows us to learn about one another prior to your arrival in Nepal. When you arrive in Nepal we will already know something about each other so that we will not begin our adventure together as complete strangers.
-
Since we will directly interact in the planning process you will have a clear understanding about your payment. I am very much conscious of your budget (am sure you are too). I understand how important it is that the money you spend on your holiday is 100 % financially protected for your confidence and peace of mind. Since I work on my own, your hard earned cash, which can be better used for your trekking expenses and it guarantees that guide, porters and other supporting staff will be paid fairly. I am not a large company so the service I provide is quite friendly and private. I am more flexible; I will hike at your pace and give more personal service.
-
Me and my supporting friends are covered by insurance for the trek and I always provide them enough clothing/equipment during the trek which is a major issue in some certain areas. If you've trekked before you will know how hard porters have to work to earn a living. Yet many guides and porters are shockingly UNDERPAID by some trekking agents. Please read my own philosophy about porters in this page - Porters in Nepal.

Nepal Trekking Grades: |
In order to enjoy your trekking in Nepal it is essential
to know which trek matches most with your physical
capabilities. Hope this grading provides a way for you
to compare different treks to find a rout to suite your
fitness level in Nepal trip. |
| |
|
|
Obviously easiest trips are designed to be enjoyed by
anyone. Especially, for those trekkers who do not have
any previous experience, we offer a diverse range of
easy Grade A treks. Categorizing a trek as easy means
that no difficult climbing or ascents to high altitudes
is involved. However the treks still involve walking up
and down gradual hills, on well-defined trails and daily
stages of 5 to 6 hours along good passable trails in
your pace through 3000 meters of altitude about 10
kilometers per day, for usually a week and this treks
are suitable for most people with an average level of
fitness. Trekking in this category are also suited to
family groups with younger children or those with
limited time. This lower altitude treks often provide
colorful horizons of a whole series of ranges.
In Annapurna region the Ghorepani /Poon Hill Trekking and Jomsom Muktinath Trekking or Pokhara – Ghandruk Treks are relatively easy, shorter treks and quite popular for diversity in both landscape and people and you will find terrain and views splendid in the heart of the central Nepal Himalayas. The Panchase Trekking and Siklesh Trekking are rarely traveled but best destination for spectacular mountain views and Gurung cultures in Annapurna region. If the idea of tea-house trekking appeals to you but you would prefer to escape from the crowds, then the Helambu Trekking could be your ideal choice. To really get away from it all, try the Sivapuri Trekking, or the Royal Trekking.

Grade - B (Moderate Treks) |
|
|
Grade B treks begin to present more of a challenge to
first time trekkers and are more tougher than Grade A.
So these treks are suitable for any walker looking for
something a little more challenging and energetic. The
treks will reach elevations approaching 4,500 meters
involving more walking up and down and sometimes
slightly higher where you will be rewarded with close up
views of big mountains and generally are of at least
fourteen days duration. The treks in these categories
are still suitable for people of all ages although small
children will probably find them too strenuous.
You can choose Annapurna Base Camp Trekking, Langtang
Region, Ganesh Himal Trekking. If you are looking for
wilderness and solitude trekking adventure, the journey
to Rara Lake Trekking is an ideal choice. It is
similarly remote and is a good option for the summer
season as rainfall is low. The last two regions are
relatively unknown by tourists. There are no teahouse so
we need to camp.

|
| |
Grade - C (Strenuous Treks) |
|
|
These trips include a physical component with some
mountains experience. Some appreciation of adventure
travel is also important, as steep climbing may be
involved, although it is never necessary to use ropes
and traveling conditions can be tough. Trekking involves
some steeper up and down on well-defined trails and
altitudes exceed 5,500 meters. Treks at this level can
be arranged for periods of 7-25 days.
For a popular and spectacular trek with the possibility
of staying in well- developed teahouses the Annapurna Circuit Trekking is a good choice
or you can take an optional route to Tilicho Lake Trekking from Manang on
Annapurna Circuit which is an area of rough and wild
beauty. A gradual ascent through a green river
valley will lead you up to a number of high passes,
where you will reach the altitude of 5,416m at Thorong
La.
Another very popular trekking, with good teahouse
facilities, are the Everest Base Camp Trekking or Everest / Gokyo Lake Trek in Everest Region.
This trek takes you into the heart of the soaring peaks
and cultures of the Everest region to the foot of the
great peak of itself. If you wish a trek in off the
beaten track, wild and restricted areas, the trail to Upper Mustang Trekking (max. elevation
5,400m) north of the Annapurna range offers fantastic
landscapes and mystical cultures. Or you can choose Makalu Base Camp Trekking, the fifth highest
peak in the world, traverses through isolated valleys
and high mountains passes (max. elevation 5,350m).
For those who are wishing to visit less touristy area I
have accumulated a variety of trekking trips to Non - Touristy Area of
Nepal at this “C” level that provide a
wilderness experience in both natural and cultural
aspect.

| |
Grade - D (Challenging Treks) |
|
|
Grade D treks are only for real adventures. The main
component at this level is likely to be a long, high
altitude trek, uphill mountain with the possibility of
some rope lambing that requires physical and mental
stamina. A high level preparation is essential before
embarking on one of these adventures. Altitudes will
often exceed 5,000 meters and the treks involve camping
for relatively long periods about 20-28 days or sometime
more than that. So excellent physical condition is
essential and mountaineering experience is preferable.
A trek to isolated, the heavily restricted Dolpo Trek (max. elevation 4,500m) in
north-west Nepal captivates visitors with its emerald
Phoksundo Lake and magnificent scenery of wild and
pristine landscape, which is unlike most part of Nepal
Himalayas. Manaslu Trekking in central Nepal (maximum
elevation 5,213m) offers a whole range of pristine eco
systems. A trek to Kanchenjunga Trekking, the third highest of
the world’s peaks will take you into the remote far east
region of Nepal. It is one of Nepal’s least trekked
areas and certainly one of the most beautiful. In
Langtang region a trekking to Ganja La Pass (5,200meters) that connects
between Langtang to Helambu is one of rewarding pass
with the views of the valley and peaks of Langtang Himal.
For those who are interested in the rugged scenery and
the scattered traditional villages a trek to Simikot (Mt. Kailash) Trekking can fulfill
their aspiration. If you are really adventures and want
the ultimate challenge, the Dhaulagiri Trekking is the most difficult of
my featured treks. This region is new territory for
trekkers and involves challenging trekking on rough high
terrain.
