Itinerary Disclaimer

We reserve the right to change any part of the itinerary during the tour, as many of the tour activities are weather dependent and roadworks/ traffic/ group dynamics etc might affect travelling time.

Is this trip right for you

  • This is a medium level trek, you need a good fitness for this trek as you will be trekking on average 5–7 hours a day.
  • A duffel bag is provided on this trip, along with a porter. Your porter can carry up to 8 kg per traveller. Other luggage can be left in Pokhara.

Physical Fitness

A good level of fitness is required for this trip. The more preparation you have done for it the more you will get out of it. You will be walking at altitudes of up to around 2800m above sea level. Whilst this trip isn’t as demanding as longer and higher treks into the Annapurna or Everest regions, you will be walking with your day pack, with the possibility of variations in temperature.

We recommend that you undertake regular aerobic exercise in the months before you travel, particularly if you are not in the habit of regular exercise. Doing mountain walks or climbing long stair cases with a pack is good preparation (try putting a few bricks in your pack for real training!). Walking, jogging, swimming or riding a bike are all good ways to increase your aerobic fitness, which will allow you to enjoy the trek to its fullest.
