Mountains in the Himalayas
are not only for extreme mountaineers. Many of our clients
are simply lovers of outdoors who want to add little extra
of adventure in their trip; and are first timers. Many of
the trekking peaks are not technical in terms of difficulty.
They are climbed without the help of supplementary oxygen.
Good physical condition and sense of enjoying adventure
activities will enhance you to enjoy the mountains. Anyone
who are able to hike daily 5-8 hours for couple of weeks,
are not afraid of snow and can follow the very simple instructions
of our climbing guide and sherpas qualify for an expedition
to trekking peaks. |
|
Mountaineers do regular
exercise. Aerobic activities such as running, swimming,
dancing, cycling, cross country skiing, hiking up and down,
etc. are the popular exercises to be fit for a hike or climb.
We suggest you to involve in such activities at least from
3 months ahead of your trek/climb in the Himalayas. |

ethics and Garbage deposit: |

We are very concerned in quality tourism
and its ethics. Nepal mountaineering association (NMA)
has set a rule of fair climbing activities. To ensure
that expedition group follows the rules, it's due to deposit
US $ 250.00 dollar (equivalent to euro, pound or Australian
dollar) at NMA office before commencing your expedition.
This deposit will be refunded after certifying that the
expedition team has followed the environmental code during
the trip.

It is wise to inquire about the trip in
well advance (at least 3 months). Make sure you have asked
each and every question that you wanted the answers. After
you are mentally ready to sign in for a trip you are requested
to send us US$ 200.00 (or equivalent) as the non refundable
deposit for a trip. After sending the deposit your hotel
in Kathmandu, airline ticket to the point where your trek
start (if applicable) and your guide and staff are confirmed.
Rest of the trip cost should be paid before the trip.
After the trip is started from Kathmandu your money will
not be refunded at any case.

Travellers coming into Nepal for trekking,
mountaineering or other adventure trips are strongly requested
to have their travel insurance from home which should
cover the emergency evacuation from the remote areas.
The remote areas of Himalaya where most trekking area
and peak lay lack of any medical facilities or transport.
So, to have insurance with coverage of emergency evacuation
is a must.

| Climbing Difficulty
Grading: |
|
|
|
We have graded the level of difficulty of
each peak but it's not recognized by any universal institution.
It's yet to figure out the difficulty of climbing in each
peak. Our grading is based in experience of our previous
clients and our own observations.
