Nepal and its mountains- thrill of trekking at its best.

 


Nepal is a Himalayan nation before we call it a home of the highest peak of the world Mt. Everest. When we talk about Nepal, it has always been about Mt. Everest and why not when it is one of the seven wonders of the world. It is known as Sgaramatha in Nepali but it is not only about the Everest which makes Nepal as one of the best destination for trekking there is more than that. Everest has always been a limelight of Nepal but there are several high mountain peaks which has wild and crazy trails for trekking that provides you one hell of an adventure. Many of us might already know that 8 out of 10 highest peaks in the whole world lies here in Nepal and trust me, these high mountains will provide you a thrill of a lifetime, so where better to go for trekking other than Nepal. By the way, we are not only talking about these 8 mountains, there are plenty more of them from medium range to high mountains. You can choose from plenty of them. Whether you choose the altitude over 4000 metres from the sea level or 6000 metres above, the thrill and adventure of these treks are the best. 

Mt. Everest  8848m, Kanchenjunga  8586m, Lhotse  8516m, Makalu. 8485m, Cho Oyu 8188m, Dhaulagiri I. 8167m, Manaslu  8163m, Annapurna I  8091m are the top eight highest mountain peaks of Nepal and each and everyone of them stands tall above 8000 metres from the sea level. The majority of the tourists most probably one third of them who visits Nepal travels with a sole purpose of trekking. One of the major reasons why travel agents are fond of creating trekking packages than the tour. However,  different tours in Nepal have gotten popular in recent years and has also been recognised as one of the best destination to travel but the trekking in Nepal will always be favourites of the tourist, there is no doubt about that. From mid range mountains to high mountains, you can choose any of them to trek as per their difficulty. Yes, if you are trekking for the first time in Nepal, you do not have to worry about the high altitudes and their difficulty. You can always choose a high grade trek in mid ranges mountains starting from 4000 metres. Though 4009 metres it will give you one of the best thrill of your life. Trekking to the high mountains is always wild and thrilling but it is equally risky as well. I mean climbing up to the high peaks, there is very high chance of getting altitude sickness and more. If you are going for a trek in these high mountains, you should prepare yourself first. Make sure you are all ready to go before you really get your gears out for trekking. Hundreds of tourist travel to Nepal every year to climb Mt. Everest. However, only a few of them could reach to the top of the world while many climb back down from the halfway to the world’s highest peak. Trekking is not as easy as we think. The journey takes several days to be completed. Food and drinks as well as other services are very much limited up there. So for beginners, I would recommend to go for a short trek at first that ranges 4000 metres or so above the sea level then you can move on from there later know. Other than that, you will never get any better experience than trekking. It is a whole different environment over there. 

One of the best thing about trekking in Nepal is the crazy trails. The wild paths to climb up to these high peaks is what makes the trek more thrilling. Not only that, when you reach up there, the vibe is totally different. The beautiful scenery, the deep forests, the views of the mountain ranges, the scenes of the clouds, the wilderness is something that you will never forget in your life. This right here is  actually the best part of trekking. Getting at the top is just a goal but the real treasure lies in between the trek. 

Apart from that, another best part about trekking in Nepal is to witness and experience the local culture. Even if you travel to Nepal only for trekking , you will definitely witness and experience different Nepali cultures one way or another. 

When we talk about the best mountains to trek in Nepal, there are several to choose from the list but there are few names which has always been favourites of tourists. 

Everest Base camp trek.

Annapurna circuit trek.

Langtang trek

Manaslu trek and more

These treks are considered to be some of the best in Nepal which generally lasts about a couple of weeks. For the prices you can consult with different travel agents which provides full trekking service in Nepal.
