overseas based trekking and tour companies, every dollar that

INTRODUCTION TO NEPAL
Home to eight of the world’s ten highest mountains,
the Kingdom of Nepal draws an estimated 400,000 visitors annually.
Landlocked between India and Tibet, Nepal contains some of
the world’s most diverse and breathtakingly beautiful
landscapes ranging from the impressive peaks of the Himalayan
chain in the north, high-altitude plains and remote mountain
passes, subtropical forests and national parks, terraced farmland
hills and rice paddies, to the fertile plains of the Terai
in the country’s south. <more>

TREKKING GRADES
For many of our treks, you can choose between staying in tea-houses
or camping. A tea-house is a locally run guest house, but standards
vary enormously. In popular areas such as Annapurna, tea houses
are more like small hotels, with hot water, Western food and
private rooms, whereas in more remote areas, they are far simpler
and more authentically Nepali. Tea-house trekking is less expensive
than camping, and is suitable for small groups. With large groups,
irrespective of the area, it is more practical to camp. A team
of guides, porters and cooks mean you trek in comfort and provides
international-style food of a high standard. <more>
