Female Trekking Guide
Shira Kulung

Shira Kulung is our female trekking guide, born and raised in the Solokhumbu region - home to Mount Everest and some of Nepal's most iconic trails. Growing up in the middle of towering peaks in heart of the Himalayas, Shira was very passionate on trekking and tourism from a very early age.

She holds a Bachelor's degree in Health, a background that allows her to prioritize safety, physical well-being, and responsible trekking practices for her guests. Her journey to guiding started naturally, as most of her relatives and villagers were in similar occupations, and her love for the mountains evolved into a full-fledged profession.

She specializes in leading treks to Everest Base camp, Gokyo lakes, Peaky Peak, Dudhkunda, the Mundum Trail to Silichung Peak, Arun Valley to Everest Base Camp and many other Annapurna region treks. Among these, the Everest Base Camp route holds a special place in her heart, it’s where she works most often as she is from there.

She believes guiding is more than leading the way, it’s about sharing cultures, building friendships, and ensuring every trekker returns with memories they’ll cherish for a lifetime.
