The Annapurna Base Camp Trek can be done in as little as five days or as many as eight. This trek is difficult with a lot of steep uphill climbs and stairs, so shortening it will make it less enjoyable. We decided on a seven day itinerary and felt happy with it. We met several […]
Langtang Valley Trek Itinerary: 5, 6, 7 & 8 Days
The Langtang Valley Trek is a trekking route located north of Kathmandu and south of Tibet. It passes through Langtang National Park and typically takes seven or eight days of which two are spent in a jeep. My husband and I are avid trekkers, but we like to take our time and enjoy ourselves, so […]
Khopra Danda Trekking Itinerary for 5-8 Days
The Khopra Danda Trek is one of the lesser known treks in the Annapurna Conservation Area. In fact, until a few months ago, I had never even heard of it. Many people do Khopra Danda as an extension of the famous Poon Hill Trek or as a pilgrimage to Khayer Lake. It’s believed that a […]
Mardi Himal Trek Itinerary: 5 Day Route & Trail Map
We chose a five day Mardi Himal Trek itinerary after consulting several friends who had done the trek. A few groups did it in three days but called it words like “difficult, brutal, and unnecessary.” The four day trek didn’t look that much better. We then talked to people who did it in six days […]
Tsho Rolpa Trek Route with Itinerary & Map
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 […]
