Nepal Trek Challenge

There is no training required for these treks, but you need to be of average fitness. Participants must be able to walk 5-7 hours per day (with frequent rest and photo stops). There will be a porter to carry your luggage, so you only need to carry your backpack and water bottle.

While there will be porters to carry your luggage, there is a weight limit of 15kgs. You will require your own sleeping bag, towel and hiking boots - try to pack light with lots of layers. You can purchase hiking equipment in Kathmandu the night before the start of your trek. This is an option many hikers take so that they don’t need to travel with their hiking equipment if they are travelling before or after their trek. A suggested packing list is: 
1. Daypack & Rucksack/ Kit Bag One each
2. Jacket (Gore-Tex/ Down) One
3. Pullover/ Fleece One
4. T-shirt Two or more
5. Trousers Two pairs
6. Shorts (Half pants) Two pairs
7. Shirts Two or more
8. Jogging (Track suit) One (optional)
9. Trainers (Tennis Shoe or Sandal) One pair
10. Socks Five pairs
11. Cap (Sun Hat/ Woollen for winter)             One
