Nepal Trekking Tours by Region
Our 37 trekking and hiking tours sit in eight regions, and the region decides the altitude, the way in and the price. The Everest region tops out at 5,545 m on Kala Patthar, the Annapurna treks run from 3,210 m at Poon Hill to 5,416 m at Thorong La, and the table gives each region's price range for two trekkers. Most treks start and end in Kathmandu, a short drive from Tribhuvan International Airport; the 5 Days Mardi Himal Trek and the Annapurna North Base Camp Trek start in Pokhara.

Compare treks on the price for two. The "from" figure on each trip card is the rate for the largest group, so a couple on the Everest Base Camp Trek pays USD 1,455 each, not USD 1,260; for the seven treks marked "on request", ask us for your group's price. If you are still choosing between trekking routes, Best Treks in Nepal ranks 15 of them with our reasons, Short Treks in Nepal covers the 5 to 8 day treks and Easy Treks in Nepal the beginner treks.
Everest Region Treks from Kathmandu
The Everest region has 8 of our treks, from the 7-day Dudh Kunda Phaplu Trek to the 18-day Everest Three High Pass Trek, and five of them top out at 5,545 m below Mount Everest. Everest trekking mostly starts with the flight from Kathmandu or Manthali to Lukla, and the Everest Region page lists these treks beside our helicopter tours and peak climbs.

Everest Base Camp is Nepal's most popular trekking destination, through Namche Bazaar and Tengboche. The helicopter return saves 3 days, and the passes treks add 2 to 4 days to cross between the Khumbu valleys.
Annapurna Region Treks
The Annapurna region holds 14 of our treks, more than any other region, and the lowest price for two on this page: the 5 Days Mardi Himal Trek starts and ends in Pokhara and costs USD 380 each for two. It also has two 18-day routes, the Nar Phu Valley Trek and the Dhaulagiri Circuit Trek, and three yoga treks led by a guide who is also a yoga teacher; all 14 are on our Annapurna Region page.

If your time in Nepal is short, Poon Hill gives sunrise mountain views over the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri ranges in 5 days, through rhododendron forest. Annapurna Base Camp trekking takes 9 days, climbing through Chomrong into the Annapurna Sanctuary, and the circuit crosses Thorong La in 10.
Manaslu Region Treks
Our 5 Manaslu treks run 12 to 20 days, and every one needs a restricted area permit, which only a registered agency can file with a licensed guide named on it. Three cross Larkya La at 5,106 m in 12, 13 or 14 days, the other two add the Tsum Valley, and the Manaslu Region page covers the permits and the history of the area.

The 12 and 13 day versions travel by local bus and shared jeep, and the 14-day version adds a day to acclimatise before the pass.

The 14-day Manaslu Circuit Trek climbs from 1,410 m to Larkya La (5,106 m) over nine walking days, with a rest day at Samagaon.
Langtang, Mustang, Kanchenjunga and Makalu Treks
Ten treks sit outside the three big regions: 4 in Langtang, 3 in Kanchenjunga, 1 each in Upper Mustang and Makalu, and the Chisapani Nagarkot Hike in the Kathmandu Valley. They run from the 5-day Gosaikunda Short Trek to the 23-day Kanchenjunga Circuit Trek, the longest trek we run.

Check Langtang before you book. The 26 August 2026 flood destroyed the road to Syabrubesi, where the Langtang treks start; the trekking trail and villages above it are intact, but the Tamang Heritage Trek is closed and the alternative TAAN lists for the others is a longer walk in from Sundarijal (9 September 2026). The Manaslu treks are open with a changed drive to the trailhead, and the status of each route is in Is Nepal Safe to Trek After the 2026 Flood? Route-by-Route Status.
Upper Mustang and both Kanchenjunga base camp treks need restricted area permits, as does the circuit, and Upper Mustang stays dry through the June to August monsoon. Each region has its own page: Langtang Region Trekking & Tours, Mustang Region Trekking & Tours, Kanchenjunga Region Trekking & Tours and Makalu Region Trekking & Tours. For cultural heritage without the trekking (Kathmandu Durbar Square, Swayambhunath, Boudhanath, Patan and Bhaktapur), or Chitwan National Park and Lumbini, the birthplace of Lord Buddha, see Nepal Tour Packages.
How Hard Is Trekking in Nepal?
Trekking in Nepal runs from easy 5-day hikes below 3,300 m to 23-day routes graded very difficult, and the grade on each trip page tells you where a trek sits. Hiking in Nepal takes fitness, not climbing skill: our Everest Base Camp Trek page puts the walking at 5 to 6 hours a day and asks for no technical experience.

Altitude, not distance, is what makes a trek hard. Above 3,000 m the rule is to raise your sleeping altitude by 300 to 500 m a day and take a rest day every two or three days, which is why the Everest Base Camp Trek stops for a day at Namche Bazaar (3,440 m) and Dingboche (4,410 m) and the Manaslu Circuit Trek rests at Samagaon (3,530 m). Our guide Climb High, Sleep Low: Altitude and Acclimatisation on a Nepal Trek shows where those days sit on each route.
Best Time for Trekking in Nepal: March to May and September to November
The best trekking months in Nepal are March to May and September to November, when the weather is most stable and the views are clearest. Winter (December to February) and the monsoon (June to August) are the off seasons, and if you visit Nepal between June and August, pick Upper Mustang: it sits in the rain shadow and stays dry.

Trekking Companies in Nepal: What to Check Before You Book
Check three things before you book any trekking company in Nepal: that it is registered in Nepal, that a licensed guide leads your trek, and that the price you are quoted is the price for your group size. You can check all three for us before you pay anything.
- Registration. Himalayan 360 has run treks from Kathmandu since 2014. Our company registration, PAN registration and trekking agency licence from the Valley Tourism Office are on our Legal Documents page, next to our membership certificates for the Trekking Agencies' Association of Nepal (TAAN), NATTA and PATA.
- Guides. Our trekking guides are licensed Nepali guides from the regions they guide in, and acclimatisation days are built into every itinerary, not sold as an upgrade. Our Responsible Tourism policy commits us to local guides, porters and locally owned lodges.
- Price. 30 of these 37 trip pages print the price for every group size we run, so you can see the rate for two, four or twelve people before you enquire.
