Tours and Adventure

Nepal’s highest trekking peak at 6,476m — technically gentler than Island Peak, but a far bigger altitude challenge, with five 8,000m peaks from the top.

At 6,189m, Imja Tse is the classic introduction to Himalayan climbing — real glacier travel and a headwall, without needing an expedition résumé.

A sacred Buddhist valley where hunting has been forbidden for generations — ancient gompas, Tibetan culture and almost no other trekkers.

Three weeks in far eastern Nepal beneath the world’s third-highest mountain — the country’s most remote major trek.

Three high passes above 5,300m, Gokyo, Everest Base Camp and Kala Patthar in a single circuit — the most complete way to see the Khumbu.

A high desert kingdom north of the Himalaya, closed to outsiders until 1992 — walled cities, cave monasteries and a landscape closer to Tibet than Nepal.

Six turquoise glacial lakes, Nepal’s longest glacier, and a summit view many trekkers rate above Kala Patthar.

A high ridge walk that puts you almost directly beneath the Fishtail — Nepal’s best short trek for mountain intimacy rather than distance.

Sunrise over Annapurna and Dhaulagiri, rhododendron forest and classic Gurung villages — all in four to five days from Pokhara.

A full Himalayan circuit around the world’s eighth-highest mountain, crossing the 5,106m Larke La — with a fraction of the traffic of Annapurna.
