Additional information about the itinerary
- The minimum length of stay in Nepal is one night before your trekking trip and one night after your trekking trip.
- We are introducing a 5-night, 6-day course, but in the rainy season (June to September), depending on the rainfall, road conditions may deteriorate and there may be places where it is impossible to travel by jeep, so you may need 6-night, 7-days.
On the other hand, in the dry season, it is not impossible to plan to move directly to Kathmandu after arriving in Saleli on the 5th day.
Please contact us for details on either option.
- We plan to use a chartered car for the round trip, but it is also possible to change to a shared public jeep. However, it will be more tiring than trekking, as it will be packed with more people (and luggage) than the number of seats, and will drive for more than 10 hours on a winding mountain road in a crammed state. In addition, public jeeps are driven roughly and there are safety issues, so we do not recommend it. The only advantage is that the fare will be cheaper, but if you are considering this method, please contact us.

What is included in the price

Lodges during the trek
It is less developed than other routes, and some lodges do not have shower facilities (you just need to bring a bucket of hot water if you need it).
Expenses other than trekking
The above trekking fee does not include the hotel fee in Kathmandu. The accommodations we arrange are for intermediate level or above. Our opinion on hotels is posted on this page.
About Porter
For this course, if only one person is participating, it will be treated as a plan without a porter.
As a general rule, guides will not act as porters except in emergencies, so if you do not think you will be able to carry your luggage yourself, please request an additional porter.
In Nepal, every hotel offers a free baggage storage service for luggage that is not needed for trekking. If you leave unnecessary items at the hotel, many people go without a porter for trekking for about two nights. It is a bit tricky for three nights, though.
*If there are two or more people participating, a porter will accompany you, but please let us know if you do not need one.
