The
Kali Gandaki Explorer: A Himalayan Transect
Nepal
--- Trekking*Wildlife*Culture --- 22 days
We
thought it would be fun to travel across the entire Himalayan
Mountain range, so last year we gave it a try and now we’re
offering it to you.
The
trip starts north of the Himalaya on the Tibetan Plateau
and we trek, raft, and drive our way along the Kali Gandaki
River (through the World's deepest gorge, between the Annapurna
and Dhualagiri ranges) to the flat terai region south of
the Himalaya. We’ve combined the very best of trekking,
rafting, and safari along with stops to some rarely visited
quaint hilltowns, for a truly unique adventure in Nepal.

Nepal traveler.

city of Lo Manthang.
Langtang
Adventure
Trekking

The Langtang region was Nepal's first Himalayan national
park, and for good reason! Nowhere else is so much high
mountain landscape accessible with such ease and with so
few tourists. This is an extended trek which takes us through
numerous Tamang villages (Tibetan related peoples), to multiple
glaciers, and along beautiful alpine lakes.
Temples
and Tigers
Trekking*Wildlife*Culture

The traditional and still most common way to get from
one place to another in Nepal is to walk. It is an integral
facet of Nepalese culture. This is the trip for those who
want to experience Nepali life, but don't think they'll
make it trekking in the high mountains. On this trip,
we'll trek in the relative lowlands around Kathmandu Valley,
exploring the world-renowned temples of the Valley, then
on to Chitwan for a spectacular wilderness adventure looking
for wild rhinos, elephants, and tigers.

traveler.
Mera
Peak
Trekking

Mera Peak is the highest trekking peak in Nepal and
offers fine views, pristine forests, alpine lakes, and of

for acclimatization, mountaineering skills workshops, and
a chance to take in this awesome trek/climb.
Classic
Everest
Trekking
--- 22 days
This is the classic route to Everest Base Camp from
the Nepal side. We'll stop just short of base camp and climb
Kala Patar (18,190 ft). This is truly one of the finest
scenes in the Himalayas, with dizzying views of Cho Oya
(26,906 ft.), Nuptse (25,849 ft), and Everest (28,028 ft).
