Nar phu valley trek with Kamal guide, perfect!
My partner and I went on a 9-day trek in the Nar and Phu Valley. Our Kamal guide was just perfect! Professional and very nice, he accompanied us along with the porter Prim throughout the itinerary, adapting it to our needs and desires. I don't think we could have fallen into better hands than Kamal, he promptly solved all the little problems we encountered, he was fantastic as was the porter Prim. Amazing experience thank you!



Nepal Social Treks Review
I’ve just completed the 15 day Everest Base Camp trek with Nepal Social Treks and can’t praise the company, guide & porter highly enough. My guide in particular, Lhakpa was an absolute star who could not do enough to make the time away as comfortable as possible. Considerate, knowledgeable, funny, kind & inspiring. I genuinely don’t think I could have completed the trek without their support! A lifetime ambition completed thanks :)


EBC by Gokyo
If you are planning to do the EBC, the Agency should be Nepal Social Trek and the Guide should be Santa Thabir Magar. Permanent communication during trekking and excellent coordination at all times. The alternative I recommend is Gokyo. Something heavier than the classic, but definitely extraordinary. Also the views of the great mountains during the circuit, are not to forget them

Ho prenotato il viaggio dall'italia. C'è stato qualche problema non dovuto all'agenzia perchè non sono partiti voli per giorni per l'everest e loro prontamente hanno sistemato tutto. Narayan, la mia guida e amrit il mio porter sono stati fantastici. Grazie grazie grazie

FAQs about Himlung Expedition
How much does it cost for the Himlung expedition?
According to the Tourism Department of Nepal, the royalty fees for any mountains depend on two factors. First, the height of the peak and second, the season for the climb. For the spring season, the cost for the Himlung expedition is $500. Likewise, the cost for the autumn season is $250, and for winter/summer, the cost is $125. The seasonal price is the amount you need to pay to the Department of Tourism to get the permit to climb the peak.
How tough is it to climb Himlung?
Himlung Himal has an altitude of 7126m. For professional climbers, it is not a difficult feat to achieve. However, if you’re just starting as a climber, it can be a challenge, given the weather conditions and altitude.
How long does it take to climb Himlung?
The actual climbing period for Himlung Himal is about 15 days once you reach the basecamp. However, the expedition’s overall period, including the trekking time to reach the basecamp is 28-29 days.
What are the food and accomodation facilities like?
Himlung Himal is a remote trekking region. It receives very few tourists, even during the major seasons. That is one of the reasons why it has few teahouses, and the accommodation facilities are pretty basic. We will be staying in these teahouses during the trekking and tents on expedition, so the food and accomodation facilities are basic.
Once you’re in the base camp, the food that we import from abroad is what we offer. Our sherpa cooks will ensure that they give you the taste of home while you’re away from home. Foods like pasta, bacon, pizza, beans, or such are offered. Similarly, for accommodation, we use high-quality tents and stay in camps.
Which route do we use for the climb?
The route to Himlung Himal follows the round Annapurna trek and diverges from the village of Koto. It passes through Phu village, which is one of the remotest villages of Nepal. We will be using the normal south-west route for the summit.
Who will be my guide?
To accompany and guide you to the top and back, we assign our world quality professionals well known for their knowledge and service. They have more than 5 years of experience, along with the experience of summiting Everest at least 3 times.
