Special Getaways

EC0-CAMPING TREKS IN NEPAL
The Best Of Nepal Treks.

Our Special Getaways offer fully supported camping-treks each led by an experienced local leader. Every trek is carefully chosen to keep away from the popular backpacker's trail where camping is not only more fun, but also the only way to trek as there are no (or few) lodges available. Each trip is planned taking into account the natural, historical and cultural specialties of the areas featured and will be supported by a crack team of sherpas, cook and porters, all well equipped to provide the best possible trek support in remote, roadless, areas of the Himalaya. Our Special Getaways offer top quality treks while paying a cost that no other agents can compare - we cut prices not corners.

To book a place in any of our departures please fill and send us the booking form or for more information on any of these treks please write to us.
