Beyond the Limits Treks and Expedition

Nepal offers trekking opportunities throughout the year, but the best trekking seasons are spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November). These months provide stable weather, clear mountain views, comfortable temperatures, and excellent trekking conditions.

Spring is known for blooming rhododendron forests and green landscapes, while autumn offers crisp skies and the clearest Himalayan views after the monsoon season. Winter treks are possible in lower-altitude regions, and some rain-shadow areas of Nepal can also be trekked during the monsoon season, like Upper Mustang and Dolpo.

Nepal tourist visa fees generally depend on the duration of your stay. The common tourist visa options are 15 days, 30 days, and 90 days, which cost $30, $50, and $125 per person. Visa fees are usually payable in major foreign currencies such as US Dollars, and it is recommended to carry some cash for the visa payment upon arrival.

Visa regulations and fees may occasionally change, so travelers should verify the latest information before departure.

Preparation should ideally start a few weeks to a few months before your trek. Focus on building endurance through activities like hiking, jogging, stair climbing, or long walks. Strengthening your legs and improving cardiovascular fitness will help significantly. It is also useful to practice walking with a backpack to simulate trekking conditions.

Tea houses along trekking routes offer a variety of meals, including Nepali, Tibetan, and basic international dishes. The most common meal is dal bhat (rice, lentils, and vegetables), which is nutritious and provides good energy for trekking. 

Food variety also depends on which trek you're going on, popular treks offer a variety of food options, whereas wilderness trekking doesn't offer many options for food.

Since we run a company that’s linked to tourism, we are obligated to keep the environment clean, at any cost, no matter what. We are very serious about our environmental obligations & ensure that firewood is never used to cook food. In partnership with the Kathmandu Educational Environment Project (KEEP), we have contributed to a number of successful clean-up campaigns and awareness programs; its true that tourism is taking a toll on natural green landscapes, we believe that all should be committed to being a part of the solution for preserving Nepal’s natural beauty.
