Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

The popular trekking trails use lodges / guesthouses (also known as teahouses), and meals are served by these lodges. There are many set meals such as soup, noodles, rice, and plates. Trekking routes, lodges and guesthouses may be restricted or unavailable above certain 6,000 meters. In such cases, the accommodation is in a himchuli and meals are provided by staff. In these cases, meals are prepared prematurely using a canister cooker or natural fire. At the base camp, expedition cooks prepare meals. Above the base camp, meals are served by our mountaineering Sherpa. At the base camp, we always deliver alpine dishes that meet the needs of our customers.


Time requirements vary for different peaks and the variety of weather conditions. Generally peaks require 21 days to summit once you arrive in Kathmandu. This time can also vary depending on the approach and climatic conditions.


Peak climbing is generally recommended for beginners who are ready to enter the world of mountaineering. Still, climbing the top of the peak requires high-altitude trekking experience. The top of the peak is a difficult climb as steep uphill and thin air may cause some difficulty to breathe. Nevertheless, the climbing route is fixed with a fixed rope to the top.


Experienced and knowledgeable local Sherpa guides who have been successful many times at the peak. Some major mountaineers who have climbed many mountains several times during their mountaineering career.
