The most comprehensive hiking guide on the internet for trekking in Nepal.
Nepal is known globally for its picturesque mountains. Especially known to most is the mighty Mount Everest, and a lot of people travel from all over to capture a glimpse of the world’s tallest peak.
However Mount Everest is just a small fraction of what there is to discover in Nepal, with some of the most unique teahouses, monasteries and friendly locals you will come across anywhere on the planet.
The Himalaya is the ‘spine’ of the country, and what lays within will truly change the way you look at the landlocked Asian nation.
For those that love adventure, the best way to explore this country is on your own two feet, by trekking in Nepal.
From the lush forests of Helambu to the desolate peaks of the Upper Mustang, hiking in Nepal is extremely diverse.
There are literally so many options when it comes to choosing what hike to go on, so I have put together a comprehensive, ultimate guide to treks in Nepal in order to get you on your way to something amazing!
Trekking in Nepal – The Ultimate Hiker’s Guide
Nepal offers short treks up to 5 days, medium treks up to 12 days and long treks for the adventurous kind where you can be out in the wilderness for up to 20 days or more.
I’ve trekking here on multiple trips and often get a lot of questions about accommodation and food, and some people think that Nepal can’t offer much in the way of luxuries.

Everywhere you go, every trek you go on, you are bound to be invited to stay at someone’s house or teahouse. Nepal’s hospitality is just awesome, and so are its treks!
So without further ado, let me share all of my knowledge to help you make your epic adventure of hiking in Nepal easier to organise.
