Nepal Classic Treks
Take your pick! Nepal is far from short of Classic Nepal treks. Whether it's the standard trekking route to Everest Base Camp, or circuit treks of the Annapurna region, Manaslu and Dhaulagiri, the choices for a walking holiday in the Nepal Himalayas are just incredible. Then again, in the Himalayas what would you expect? Of course there are many trekking routes where you can stay overnight in trekkers lodges aka teahouses, ranging from the very simple to surprisingly good. These are primarily found in the Annapurna, Everest and Langtang & Helambu regions.
In the Everest and Annapurna regions you can hike in style and indulge in luxury lodge treks.
Naturally you may prefer a walking holiday in Nepal to be a bit more 'off the beaten track' and the mysterious regions of Dolpo and Mustang afford the intrepid mountain walker such an indulgence. The Himalayan connoisseur may find the 'Secret Himalaya' trek to Naar and Phu irrestible Around 85% of people that go trekking in Nepal are hiking in the Everest, Annapurna and Langtang regions, and by far the largest numbers are to the Khumbu region. Who can blame them? The allure of Mount Everest is difficult to deny. But, there is more than one way to reach Everest Base Camp.
Simply put, we can arrange a fully supported private group trekking trip in Nepal wherever it is you want to walk. So, if the trek you were looking for isn't listed below that doesn't mean we don't offer it.
Don't forget, we provide custom made tours so that means custom treks too. Additional rest & further acclimatisation days can be added to any of our itineraries. Wherever possible and practical, walking days can be made shorter and if your budget allows we can even arrange private heli-trekking too!
Of course the Classic Himalayan treks in Nepal are often by default much longer than the usual two week holiday, so if you don't have the time.....don't worry. We've a tasty choice of short trekking holidays in Nepal for you that are all two weeks or less. If all of a sudden you've decided that trekking for days on end isn't for you, checkout our multi-activity adventure holidays.
All our trekking holidays in Nepal feature a qualified, experienced, english speaking guide, porterage and for treks that feature camping, a full trek camp service is provided (tents, cook, tables, chairs, mess tent, additional porterage etc). You just trek carrying your usual day pack.
Everest Base Camp
Ultimate Everest Trek
Everest The Hard Way
17 days with 13 days trekking
Moderate/Challenging - Max alt.5500m
Hotels & Trekking Lodges
The classic route to Everest. Often described as 'bog standard', we don't think there's anything standard about trekking to reach the base of the world's highest mountain. See our new Everest Base Camp Heli-Trek below too!
20 days with 16 days trekking
Challenging - Max alt.5500m
Hotels & Trekking Lodges
A more challenging & interesting trek taking a detour from the main Everest trail to the glittering glacial lakes at Gokyo. Ascend Gokyo Ri and cross the Cho La on this backdoor route to EBC.
Annapurna Sanctuary & Poon Hill
The Full Annapurna Circuit
Manaslu Circuit
21 days with 17 days trekking
Very Challenging - Max alt.5500m
Hotels & Trekking Lodges
For the serious, committed trekker only. A very challenging trek across two high passes to reach EBC. A quieter route by the nature of the more strenuous trekking required. Tough, but exceptionally rewarding and very spectacular.
15 days with 11 days trekking
Moderate/Challenging - Max alt.4300m
Hotels & Trekking Lodges
One of the most beautiful treks in Nepal (in our opinion) up to the classic Himalyan sunrise panoramic view point of Poon Hill and then to the magnificent mountain amphitheatre of the 'sanctuary' and Annapurna Base Camp.
20 days with 17 days trekking
Challenging - Max alt.5416m
Hotels & Trekking Lodges
The best known of all classic Himalayan treks, this is the full version of the Annapurna Circuit Trek. Over the Thorung La, down the Kali Gandaki and up to Poon Hill. For a shorter version see here

A classic circuit trek of an 8000m peak for the discerning, very capable Himalayan trekker in search of a quieter walking route through a genuine mountain wilderness. Over the Larkya La to the Marsyangdi.
Dhaulagiri Circuit
19 days with 13 days trekking
Very Challenging- Max alt.5370m -
Hotels & Camping
A serious and committed undertaking with a number of very tough trekking days at high altitude. The realm of the experienced trekker only. A journey into a true Himalayan wilderness that goes beyond the definition of spectacular.
Helambu & Langtang
16 days with 13 days trekking
Challenging - Max alt.4773m
Hotels & Trekking Lodges
Fine ridge trekking in the lesser trekked Helambu region and across the Lauribina La to sacred Gosainkund Lake. Into the scenic Langtang Valley to atmospheric Kyanjin Gompa. Unspoilt villages and fine Himalayan views.
Secret Himalayas
16 days with 12 days trekking
Challenging- Max alt.5320m
Hotels & Camping
There is special, and then there is VERY SPECIAL. This trek into restricted valleys and mountainscapes leads to the isolated villages of Phu and Naar. A glimpse into an unspoilt Tibetan way of life that is earned the hard and satisfying way.
Tibet & Sacred Kailas
20 days with 10 days trekking
Challenging - Max alt.5600m
Hotels, Guest Houses & Camping
Trek from Nepal and through the Himalaya into Tibet. Visit the holy lake of Manasarovar and complete the Kora around Kailas on foot. To many a spiritual journey, to others spectacular scenery, and for all a tough challenge.
Forbidden Mustang
17 days with 10 days trekking
Challenging - Max alt.4200m
Hotels & Trekking Lodges/Teahouses
Just the name 'Mustang' fires the imagination. A wild, barren & arid high mountain desert that's more 'Tibet' than Nepal. From Jomsom you journey through this unforgiving yet incredible landscape over high passes to reach the legendary capital Lo Manthang. Returning via a different route.
Dolpo & The Crystal Mountain
26 days with 20 days trekking
Very Challenging - Max alt.5375m
Hotels & Camping
Remote, isolated and by and large unchanged by the few that venture here as a result. The mystical land of Dolpo was both the setting for the Peter Matthiessen classic 'The Snow Leopard' & the Eric Valli film 'Himalaya'. Shey Gompa, Phoksundo Lake and the 'Demons Trail' await the intrepid adventure traveller on this very challenging, fascinating circuit trek to Inner Dolpo.
