Eastern Nepal Trek

Trekking in Eastern Nepal

Different ethnic groups inhabit the east of Nepal. This area generally receives 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 trek of course, then we will take care of food, tents, healthcare and much more.
