Our trips enhance the cultural and environmental diversity of this region, enriching the whole holiday experience by combining stunning natural beauty and a good trekking workout with a wholesome cross-cultural experience.
The best time for the trek is mid-Oct - end-Nov and the later half of February when the days are crisp and the scenery stunning.
