The Kanchenjunga Base Camp Trek is an extraordinary journey, and those who embark on it soon realize that their adventure has just begun in the heart of Nepal. This trek offers unparalleled vistas, with majestic mountains standing tantalizingly close.
Many trekkers seek to explore the remote and awe-inspiring landscapes of Nepal but are constrained by limited vacation time. They crave the allure of high peaks and the sense of solitude that comes with it, not necessarily needing to conquer Everest. In this regard, the third highest peak in the world, Kanchenjunga, offers an allure that surpasses common expectations. Its lofty status captivates trekkers, while its remoteness beckons them to one of the most pristine regions on Earth. These trekkers are also explorers, drawn to immerse themselves in the breathtaking beauty of the Kanchenjunga Conservation Area and the remote wilderness.
Kanchenjunga itself is not of Nepali origin but derives from the Tibetan language, signifying gold, silver, precious stones, grains, and Holy Scriptures. The path to Kanchenjunga Base Camp leads through a captivating landscape, rich with tropical jungles adorned with rhododendrons, oaks, and chestnuts, ascending to high-altitude alpine forests. Along the way, trekkers encounter diverse flora and fauna, monasteries, stupas, and Gompas, all set against the majestic backdrop of the Himalayas. The Kanchenjunga region also boasts a unique Tibetan Buddhist culture, undisturbed habitats, and the rich traditions of the Rai and Limbu communities.
Arriving at Kanchenjunga Base Camp, trekkers are spellbound by the mountain's splendor. It stands proudly in its remote location, yet exudes a breathtaking beauty that captivates the body, mind, and soul. Choosing to embark on the Kanchenjunga Base Camp trek is a decision that promises a profound and unforgettable adventure.

Me along with two of my friends did the two-week Khopra ridge community trek. The was a fun guy with lot of knowledge about the mountains. He was equally helpful and very caring. We thoroughly enjoyed our trek with him and next time when we travel to Nepal, we will directly ask for him. He couldn't be better enough for us. We will be back soon! Thank you all at the company. Dhanyabad!
We have just returned from a trip to Everest Base Camp (over 55's in comfort - 12 April to 2 May). We loved it! Our group Guide, Tshering, Assistant Guide, Santosh and Sirdar, Rajan together with the "boys" (4 strong boys, cook and assistant cook) were wonderful, they were hard working and reliable. Friendly, helpful, informative, calm and encouraging. We were all over 60! 5 out of 7 got the Khumbu cough! Only one person showed any signs of altitude sickness and the length of the trip certainly helped acclimatise. Tshering made sure we received adequate medical advice and assistant if required. We all made it to EBC and certainly the longer trip, sensible acclimatisation and slow pace helped with this achievement. I'm still feeling proud. Whilst we were probably the most experienced hikers in our group, we had a member who had no trekking experience or etiquette in our group but we worked as a team and walked to the ability of the slowest. How wonderful it was to sit down at the end of each day knowing a drink, food, bed and warm dining room were all there waiting for us. Meals were tasty and enough offered for everyone, Santosh always on hand to offer us seconds. I almost always cleaned my plate! My favourites were the soups, porridge, potatoes, paratha's and chapati's, lentil dhal - always some veggies, all cooked expertly on a gas/kero stove. It was so reassuring to know we could eat and drink without fear of stomach issues which would have made the arduous trek even tougher! Yep, WE itinerary and experience showed and we would not hesitate in booking another trip in Nepal with WE. The contingency plan to get us back to Kathmandu by helicopter in time to catch international flights was well managed and executed. ****** Thanks all round to the team and ground staff in Nepal! P.S. the water bottles with hot water at bedtime to pop inside our sleeping bags - the best idea ever!

I just finished a customized extended 19 day trek around Manaslu. My local guide Tsiring used his extraordinary familiarity with the area to include two overnight home-stays and five days of hiking on unique trails away from the standard route around the mountain.

Kathmandu Durbar Square was the residence and the center of power of the kings in the past with many palaces and temples.
Closer to Durbar Square is Swoyambhunath, popularly known as the ‘Monkey Temple’. It is located atop a hill providing great view of the Kathmandu City.
