Itinerary

Venture into the remote eastern Himalayas on the Kanchenjunga Base Camp Trek, an epic journey for young adults and experienced trekkers in search of adventure. Traversing the Kanchenjunga Conservation Area, this trip moves from lush tropical lowlands to dramatic high-altitude landscapes, surrounded by snow-capped giants—including Kanchenjunga itself, the world’s third-highest peak at 8,586m.

Along the route, you’ll witness a stunning diversity of wildlife—from elusive red pandas and Himalayan black bears to the rare snow leopard—and enjoy panoramic views of Lhotse, Makalu, Everest, and Kanchenjunga. Opened to foreign travelers only in 1988, this trail promises unspoiled scenery and genuine local encounters.

The unique selling point of this trekking tour is its immersive wilderness experience: you’ll explore one of Nepal’s lesser-traveled, yet most rewarding, trekking regions, famed for both its cultural richness and dramatic mountain vistas. If you’re seeking a challenging adventure far from the crowds, this trek delivers Himalayan grandeur at its finest.

Guillia put a great self-drive tour together for us and Susana looked after us as we travelled. (Even when we got lost) The car and accommodation was good and the guides patient and informative. Only issue we had was parking in small villages, garages, and cities. Apart from the parking we had a relaxing and enjoyable holiday, thank you.
