Makalu Base Camp Trekking is one of the best treks for travelers to explore Nepal's isolated and uninhabited mountains. The Makalu Base Camp, located at an elevation of 5250 meters, is the trek's ultimate endpoint. It is blessed with a pristine scenery and abundant natural beauty. With its beauty and diversity, Makalu (the fifth-highest peak) draws a lot of travelers looking for adventure. With the 17-day Makalu Base Camp Trekking, you may take in the breathtaking Himalayan views and get a sense of how remote Nepal is. When you visit Makalu Barun National Park, you may hear the sounds of nature in addition to the stunning mountain scenery. Due to the several high altitude passes, Makalu is among the most difficult base camp treks. A short saddle (7200 meters) connects Kangchungtse (Makalu II, 7678 meters) and Chomo Lonzo (7804 meters), two famous subsidiary peaks of Makalu. By global standards, each peak is a sizable mountain.
Starting from Tumlingtar, the Makalu Base Camp Trek ascends the Arun river valley to Sedua and Num before crossing the Shipton La Pass (4210 m) and entering the upper Barun river valley to get a close-up view of Makalu and Chamlang Himal. One of Nepal's most uninhabited and isolated regions is visited on this trek. The Makalu Base Camp Trek starts in Tumlingtar and continues up the Arun river valley to Sedua and Num before crossing the Shipton La Pass (4210 m) and entering the upper Barun river valley to get a close-up view of Makalu and Chamlang Himal. A distant and rarely traveled region of Nepal is visited on this expedition. According to a deal between the governments of China and Nepal, which includes 830 square kilometers of conservation area and 2330 square kilometers of national park in Nepal alone, the Barun valley is a component of a vast international protected region.

I recently completed the Manaslu & Tsum Valley trek, and it’s safe to say it was one of the most rewarding and culturally rich experiences I’ve had in the Himalayas.
From the start, the communication with the company was clear, prompt, and reassuring. They helped tailor the itinerary slightly to suit my pace and interests, and everything from permits to logistics was handled smoothly—which is no small feat in such a remote region.
Our guide, was fantastic—not only knowledgeable about the trails, villages, and cultural nuances, but also genuinely caring and adaptable. He struck the perfect balance between giving us space to take in the environment and stepping in when needed (especially during the tougher parts of the trail).
The trek itself is stunning but not for the faint-hearted. Compared to more well-known routes like Annapurna or Everest, this one feels wilder and less developed, which was exactly what I was looking for. The trails wind through deep gorges, suspension bridges, serene monasteries, and small villages that still feel untouched by mass tourism. Tsum Valley in particular felt incredibly special—like stepping into another world, with its Tibetan-influenced culture and timeless pace of life.
Accommodation was understandably basic in many places, but my guide chose the best available tea houses and kept me and the others well-fed and comfortable. Even during the colder nights at higher altitudes, we always felt looked after.
Overall, this trek was physically demanding, culturally immersive, and emotionally grounding. It’s not your typical tourist trail, and that’s exactly why I’d recommend it—and especially go with a reputable company —to anyone seeking a more authentic Himalayan adventure. In a safe way!
Can’t wait until next trek!
I have been working with Chris and his team on behalf of my clients for the past one year.
In a nutshell, I couldn't have picked a better partner.
His ability to manage situations (as things are extremely fluid during adventures), remain calm, problem solves and handle updates is beyond exemplary.
Thank you for everything that you do.
Our group of three had a wonderful experience despite some weather difficulties. Our guide, Raju, did an amazing job leading us and his company worked the logistical angles well to ultimately get us to Everest Base Camp. It was an incredible experience and great working with this company that I recommend wholeheartedly!

We had awesome trek to see Gurung community with the help of Sujan and the local operator. We managed historic hill trek to Siklis still retains an aura of old times. Historically, Siklis is renowned as one of the major origin places of Gurung Community. Here, we find the various ritual practices of Gurungs especially the works of Jhankri (shaman) and Lama (priest), who have important roles in marriage, death and day-to-day lives. Traditional technologies like alcohol fermentation, weaving clothes and sacks from the wild nettle, weaving various bamboo products, traditional water mills and stone grinders, wooden threshers etc are also the important features of Siklis. In this region we spot Nepals birds of prey including the 9ft wingspan Lammergeyer.
