A trek is walking at your own
pace along well-established village trails, enjoying close
contact with people in remote mountain villages whose lifestyle
has not changed for generations. Perhaps the most enjoyable
parts of a trek are the clean mountain air and the magnificent
views of the mighty Himalayan peaks. You will feel at peace with
nature and with yourself.
Whichever trek you choose, it is essential to remember that a
trek is not a climbing experience. Camp sites are carefully
selected to afford you a walk each day at your own pace and our
Sherpa staff are always around to guide you. All camping
equipment and foodstuffs are provided, and will be carried by
porters who will also carry your duffel bags. All you need to
carry is your daypack with camera equipment, water bottle and
toilet kit. Should you find it difficult to even cope with this,
our Sherpas will be more than happy to assist you. |

The mountains, the palaces,
the villages and the monasteries we visit are are as fragile as
they are rich and beautiful. To appreciate and respect them
fully we all need to be aware of the effects of our presence and
of how to minimize its impact. We make every effort to leave the
physical environment of each place we visit as we found it. or
better than we found it. We try to give you as much information
as we can, before you depart, on the history and customs of each
region and how you can best respect and be a part off those
customs. The local people are extremely understanding of us and
our needs and customs- we owe at least the same understanding to
them. |
We believe our trips are the
best value for money. Prices include top-quality sleeping bags
and mats, tents and down jackets, plus climbing equipment on
mountaineering expeditions.
