GREAT HIMALAYA TRAIL TREKKING IN NEPAL

The GREAT HIMALAYA TRAIL is an exclusive adventure holiday with Himalaya Holiday Service Pvt. Ltd., one of the Nepals' leading Adventure travel companies.

Great– opportunities to walk Nepal’s Great Himalaya Trail ! The Great Himalaya (GHT) is the longest and highest alpine walking track in the world winding 4500kms through the tallest mountain ranges and most isolated communities from Tibet to Pakistan. The Nepal section of the GHT offers a kaleidoscope of experiences and Himalaya Holiday Service (P) Ltd is proud to offer the first-ever range of commercial treks that commenced in February 2013.

The trail, which can be undertaken in one continuous trek of 157 days, will traverse the country from east to west. Acknowledging that most of us simply don’t have the luxury of this sort of time for our adventures, we’ve crafted seven treks that will interlink to make up the full traverse. The beauty of each is that they all offer something completely different, but importantly, by joining one of the GHT treks (or the whole thing if you so desire) you will be helping us achieve our vision of sharing the benefit of tourism dollars with isolated communities that currently receive little to no income from this source.

We’ll employ porters and support staff from these various regions, purchase our food goods from these villages and of course, travellers will delight in the opportunity to purchase traditional handicrafts from these communities. This is sustainable tourism in practice as it addresses wealthy disparity and helps to reduce poverty. This is an opportunity to experience some of the least visited, most exciting hidden corners of Nepal where you will be struck with awe and wonder at the scale and grandeur of the land.
