The Tsho Rolpa Trek seems to be a mystery when you try to find information online. While this trek is one of the best kept secrets in Nepal, it’s also one of the easiest treks to navigate. The Swiss Embassy is about to complete the trekking trails on this route, and they are the nicest […]
7 Day Itinerary in Nepal: Culture & History
While I would highly recommend spending more than one week in Nepal, some people only have a short time frame to explore this beautiful country. Creating a 7 day itinerary in Nepal isn’t that easy if you don’t know the area. I participate in a lot of Facebook groups related to travel in Nepal, and […]
Kulekhani Lake Trek Itinerary: 3 Day Trek in Nepal
As much as I love long term trekking, I can’t do it every single day. Yet, sometimes I want a break from the Kathmandu Valley. I’ve been searching for short treks that can be done by all age ranges and by those with no trekking experience. Sometimes people don’t want to spend weeks roughing it […]
7 Day Itinerary for Adventure Sports in Nepal
Making a 7 day itinerary for adventure sports in Nepal was a lot of fun. Adventure tourism is such a big deal here because it’s one of the few places where you can try almost everything for a fraction of the price. You can bungy jump, abseil waterfalls, white water raft, and go rock climbing […]
Kathmandu Valley Trekking Itinerary – 3 Day, 5 Day & 7 Day
The Kathmandu Valley Trek is one of the most underrated treks in Nepal. For some reason, everyone thinks you have to be above an altitude of 3,000m or 10,000ft in order to be doing a proper trek within the country. The problem is that there’s a small window for trekking season in Nepal, plus trekking […]
Patan Itinerary: Hotels, Restaurants, Temples, Walking Tours & More
The first time I went to Nepal, I really dragged my feet about going to Patan. In my mind, it was too far away to go for just one day, but it wasn’t far enough to warrant switching hotels. On my second visit to Nepal, I was invited to Patan to watch a friend DJ […]
Kathmandu Itinerary: Hotels, Restaurants, Sightseeing & More
Kathmandu has quickly become my second home. Having spent weeks at a time there over the course of several months, I’ve had the chance to really explore the city. However, I realize not everyone will be able to spend months in Kathmandu, and frankly, most might not want to. Having visited all of the top […]
Annapurna Circuit Itinerary with 3 Optional Side Treks
I made this Annapurna Circuit itinerary after realizing that there wasn’t a lot of solid information on how to navigate the path without a guide. Everyone I met who completed the Annapurna Circuit said it was easy to navigate, and the trails were well marked. I have to say that I don’t entirely agree. I […]
Everest Base Camp Trek Itinerary with Gokyo Lake
I decided to do the Everest Base Camp Trek with a tour group since I was an inexperienced trekker. Previously, I’d only done three day treks at most, so an eighteen day trek was beyond my level of expertise. Add in the fact that I’d be in a developing country with a danger of altitude […]
Mera Peak Climbing Itinerary: 15 Day Route
I decided to climb Mera Peak on a bit of a whim when the original trek I’d planned to Upper Dolpa turned out to be too expensive. Swotah Travel & Adventure gave me a Mera Peak climbing itinerary, but after doing some research I asked if I could make some alterations. I wanted to make […]
