Short Treks

Leaving Pikey BC © Alex Treadway

A short trek is a great way to get into the mountains in 2 – 8 days, without committing the time or effort to get over high passes or into high altitude.

Short treks range from easy but that’s “Himalayan” easy so do expect some challenges along the way). They have short daily walking hours with plenty of time to recover or explore the villages in the afternoons.

And there are the more strenuous treks – they have some bigger ups and downs to conquer and longer daily walking hours if you’re up for more of a challenge or are an experienced trekker.

Whether you want to be off the beaten path, or would like to explore one of the classic routes, the one thing in common with our short treks is that they’re all beautiful!

Himalayan Trails went above and beyond to make our trip seamless and memorable. Their attention to detail, friendly service, and passion for Nepal set them apart. When a natural disaster meant amendments to our trek were required, they ensured we were safe and still got to see the highlights of the amazing Himalayas. Their staff are very experienced and so very friendly. I highly recommend Himalayan Trails to anyone seeking an extraordinary and unforgettable travel experience in Nepal.

I was genuinely excited about this trip, as it was my first solo adventure. Despite the unexpected circumstances I encountered upon arriving in Nepal, my guides were attentive and dedicated, going above and beyond to ensure I had a great experience and could stick to my itinerary. I would definitely recommend this trip!
