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!

Perfekte Organisation und voll auf unsere Bedürfnisse zugeschnittene Tour. Wir waren 10 Tage im Langtang Gebiet und Gosaikunda unterwegs. Die Vorbetreuung durch Amanda und das Vorgespräch mit Raj waren optimal. Unser Guide (Kesap) kümmerte sich rührend um uns und wusste auf all unsere vielen Fragen eine Antwort. Er bereitete uns hervorragend auf den jeweiligen kommen Tag vor und organisierte alles perfekt rund um jedes Teehaus. Unser Träger (Dipak) war immer bei uns, unterstütze uns immer als „Nachhut“ und stand uns bei ebenfalls dauernd zur Verfügung. Wir konnten uns einfach auf die Landschaft, die Leute, die Höhe einlassen. Eine Traumtour, trotz teilweise schlechten Wetters. Wir würden sofort wieder Himalayan Trails wählen. Vielen Dank für die wunderschönen Tage!

One of the best mountain experiences of my life. Travel doesn't get easier than with the Himilayan trails team. I got to sit back and enjoy the experience while they took care of me along the way. The guides know everything and everyone and are easy to trust and fun to be around for long periods of time. This team knows what really counts when making exceptional experiences. Look no further for guided travel perfection.

I trekked the Pikey Peak for my 50th birthday with my sister and it was fabulous. We experienced a flooding disaster with heavy rain and weren't able to complete parts of the trek but our tour guides were fabulous and kept us safe and happy. Tendu, Tenjee and Dolma were awesome becoming more then guides, but friends. I highly recommend Himalayan-Trails for any adventure in Nepal. I will be back for sure. Thanks Team Himalayan-Trails
