Trekking
means a journey undertaken on foot for sight seeing
in areas where modern transport system is not
normally available. A walk of a few or more days
through the hills of Nepal will not only give
you a view of the mountains, but also take you
through remote villages inhabited by hospitable
people.
We invite you
to join us on visit to this remote region to see
the truth of your dream.
Trekking Styles
There are very
various ways of trekking through Himalayan range
of Nepal. When is planing a trek you need to think
carefully about different styles of trekking available.
Remember that when hiking in any major range of
the mountains, it makes sense to go with at least
one chosen companion, as a slip or a sprained
ankle could occur at any time. It is also prudent
to register with your embassy before setting off,
and to sign in at any police checkpoint along
the way.
Tea House Trekking:
There are three major areas in Nepal where it is possible to walk very well defined trails and stay at local tea houses, which vary from two storey hotels to small family homes. The areas are Annapurna, Langtang and Everest. You can eat, and sleep in the tea houses so you do not need to carry any camping equipment or food. You meet many other trekkers but this is a very sociable environment. All the tea houses are run by Nepalese people so do not think you are missing out on opportunities to mix with local people. This is where having a guide is a great benefit. Although there is often no need to have a guide for navigational purposes, they are worth their weight in gold when it comes to making sure you have a full experience of the best Nepal has to offer. Nepalese people by nature have patience and an enthusiasm for life envied and respected by nearly all visitors to Nepal.They can help with choosing good tea houses and making the opportunity of experiencing more typical Nepalese life in local farms or schools. All of our guides have good knowledge of the area you are trekking in and good English. All you need to bring for a tea house trek are warm clothes for the evening, a water bottle, a camera and a good sleeping bag. (See the trekking equipment list). Equator provide a guide and
porter, all the permits and food and accommodation for both you and your guide
and porter.
