Trek along the mountains of Nepal
Biggest attraction in Nepal?
No surprises for guessing here, but the obvious answer are Mount Everest. The simple fact that it is the tallest peak in the world gets attraction the year around. It is the best place in the world for an adventure lover and rightly so too. Any adventure freak would have Everest Base campas the first place to visit in Nepal. It is from here that people form groups and start climbing the mountain. There are plenty of people who plan going on such trips and you could get attractive deals when you go as a large group. In fact, try to pitch the trekking idea to a group of 10 to 20 people before you speak to your operator. You would easily be able to get a group package and this is bound to bring your spends down quite heavily. So speak to as many people as you know – friends, colleagues, acquaintances to form the biggest group possible. You would be guaranteed a better trip in terms of pleasure as well as better prices on stay, gear and food.
Time to trek till the peak!
Always research before you start travelling. It is the most important thing to do. Most of the places in Nepal meant for trekking are inaccessible by road. It is no different with the Everest Base camp, there are hardly any roads leading up there and you would have to use the road track that is meant for walks. Many people use them for trekking in Nepal, you can use them with full confidence; the villagers have been using them for years together.
What to pack?
Surely, you would want to buy a big travel bag when you are travelling that will hold all your equipment together. It is bound to get really cold out there, so pack windcheaters and jackets that will keep you warm throughout the trek. You need to also keep flashlights and also batteries as spare- you never know how useful a flashlight can be. Climbing for hours will drain you out physically - You can also stock up with energy bars. It would be a good idea keeping a Swiss army knife too. This would keep you equipped at all times. It would be perfect when you need to cut fruits or ropes.
