Lodge Treks Many people prefer to avoid the daily haggling for food and shelter. Most trekking companies offer a package that includes a guide, porter and accommodation for a fixed daily rate.

Group Lodge Treks A number of adventure travel companies offer escorted lodge treks, which they often call ‘teahouse treks’. Most companies take over an entire lodge for their group and provide all food and accommodation as part of the package.

Trekking in Nepal Himalaya involves many days of walking. To experience the hill country, you should allow yourself at least two weeks. Unless you have a month or more at your disposal, you’ll probably manage only one trek during your visit. In any event, you’ll want to spend a few days in Kathmandu and possibly visit Pokhara and a jungle lodge in Chitwan while you are in Nepal. The real trek in Nepal lasts three weeks at least. It is my heartiest opinion. One Week Trek If you have allowed yourself only one week in Nepal, you won’t have time to do any serious trekking, especially if you also want to do some sightseeing in Kathmandu. You could do a short walk on the Kathmandu valley rim, head to Pokhara and do some day hikes, or a three- or four-day trek to Ghorapani (2850 m) or Ghandruk (1940 m). It is a small part of Around Annapurna trek. Two Weeks With two weeks you could trek to Annapurna base camp (4130 m), Langtang or fly to Lukla (2860 m) and walk to Sherpa vi...
