Special Trekking Routes |
|
 |
Highlander has
embarked on new
trekking routes
in Nepal to
explore the
richness of
nature and
culture and of
course to show
the reality of
Nepalese daily
life. We have
few selected of
the beaten
trekking
packages in
Nepal, Tibet,
Bhutan, Sikkim
and Ladakh.

Annapurna Region |
|
 |
This region has
the most
commercial
trekking trails.
However it
offers some
extra ordinary
scenes of icy
himalyan peaks
and traditional
mountain
villages. You
will encounter
many ethnic
groups and
therefore gain a
good
understanding of
the cultural
differences in
nepal.Kathmandu
- Pokhara is
either 6 hours
by bus or 35
minutes by
plane. |

|
|
Langtang Region |
|
 |
Just north of
the capital is a
good trekking
area, which
offers deep and
narrow valleys
as well as high
mountains. This
is the homeland
of Sherpa,
Brahman and
Chetri. You will
come upon many
cultural spots
and pilgrimage
sites.

The
Wild West |
|
 |
The far west
area of nepal is
rarely visited
by tourists.
Coming here is
like traveling
backwards in
time. Forget
jeans and
coca-cola. In
this area it is
very difficult
to travel alone
- there is
hardly any
teahouses och
inns to eat or
sleep in. But it
is perfect for a
camping trekk.
We can arrange a
complete trekk
in this rarely
visited area,
including food,
tenets, health |

Solu-Khumbu/Everest |

Solu-khumbu is
the district
southwest of mt.
Everest. The
area is
populated by
sherpas in its
higher parts and
tamangs and rais
in the lower
parts. mt.
Everest and
several other
peaks over 8000m
are natural gems
in this area.
Solu-khumbu is
known as the
roof of the
world. This is
the home of
mount everest,
the highest peak
in the world.You

Eastern Nepal |
|

Different ethnic
groups inhabit
the east ofNepal.
This area
generally
recieves more
rainfall which
increase the
agricultural
productivity.
The rhododendron
forests and the
spectacular
mountain
scenario form
the main
attractions.
Quite few
tourists travel
to this area.
Therefore you
must be
self-sufficient.
If not we
arrange a
camping trekk of
course, then we
will take care
of food, tents,
healtcare and

Restricted
Areas |
|
 |
Since 1991 it is
possible to get
permission to
enter former
restricted
areas. The
restrictions are
to protect the
environment and
culture of these
remote regions.
Each group will
be assigned a
special
"Environmental
Officer" who
will accompany
during the
trekking period.
