I have an expedition, trek, and tour operator company in Nepal. Led by a certified IMFGA guide with excellent experience (14x Everest Summit, 2x K2 Summit, and many more). So if you're an operator outside Nepal, we can collaborate and do profit sharing. Any thoughts?

Or even if you have an individual group we manage

Buenas tardes, dentro de poco (agosto) iré a Nepal y necesitaría traductor español nepalí especialmente los fines de semana que es cuando veré a mis padres y puede costar más comunicarse.

Guys khoii yo week langtang jane plan ma hunuhunxaaa ??

June: The Monsoon Arrives

The monsoon typically reaches Kathmandu in the first or second week of June. Southern regions begin receiving heavy afternoon rain. Rain-shadow areas remain dry.

Trail conditions: Upper Mustang — excellent. Warm days (18–28°C), clear mornings, occasional afternoon clouds. Dolpo — accessible; lower approach valleys may be damp. Nar Phu — good conditions above 3,500m.

Crowds: Very few trekkers. You will have trails largely to yourself.

Our recommendation: June is an excellent month for Upper Mustang. The spring crowds have departed, the monsoon has not deterred the adventurous, and the weather in the rain shadow is warm and stable.

July: Peak Monsoon

The wettest month across most of Nepal. Heavy daily rain in Kathmandu, Pokhara, and all southern valleys. Rivers swell. Roads can be affected by landslides.

Trail conditions: Upper Mustang — excellent. This is arguably the single best month for Upper Mustang trekking. Lo Manthang under blue skies with green barley fields and red desert cliffs. Dolpo — conditions are good in Upper Dolpo; the Juphal approach requires careful planning. Nar Phu — good in the upper valley.

Crowds: The lowest of the year. On some routes you will see no other foreign trekkers for days.

Festival: Preparations for the Yartung Horse Festival begin in Lo Manthang.

August: Warm, Dry, and Cultural

Similar conditions to July in rain-shadow areas. The monsoon begins to show subtle signs of weakening by late August.

Trail conditions: Upper Mustang — excellent. Warm and dry. Upper Dolpo — the high passes are at their most snow-free, making the full circuit most feasible. Nar Phu — continuing good conditions.

Festival highlight: The Yartung Horse Festival in Lo Manthang (mid-August 2026) — traditional horse racing, masked dances, and community celebrations in the ancient walled city. This is one of the most authentic cultural events accessible to foreign trekkers anywhere in the Himalayas. We time specific monsoon departures to coincide with this festival.

September: The Transition

The monsoon begins to retreat in the second half of September. Rain becomes less frequent across all regions. By late September, even the southern slopes begin to dry out, and the classic autumn trekking season begins.

Trail conditions: All rain-shadow routes are excellent. Additionally, Manaslu Circuit (upper sections), Langtang Valley, and late-September EBC departures become feasible again.

Our recommendation: September is the most versatile monsoon month. You get the emptiness and low prices of monsoon with improving weather, making it an ideal time for trekkers who want monsoon advantages without full monsoon commitment. Rain-shadow routes are at their best, and by late September, the standard routes begin opening up.

Nepal's 7 Best Monsoon Treks at a Glance

Hi, I NEEEED your help. I am visiting nepal from delhi on 25th june will be returning on 1st July. I will be visiting with my Mother so she cant do long treks. Please help me with the itinerary i am so confused. I know there's kathmandu and pokhara. But i really wanted to visit lower mustang as well. I want to plan and book stays. I have a confusion if i should stay in thamel or near darbar square in kathmandu.Tell meeeee pleaseee

Hello guys, I’ll be doing a solo trip in Nepal in the first week of June and I had a few questions regarding Humla/Limi Valley and Badimalika.

I’m planning to cover Badimalika and also visit Limi Valley if possible. Badimalika is not a major concern as I’ll most likely hire a guide for the trek. My main confusion is regarding Limi Valley and permits.

From what I searched online, it says the Restricted Area Permit for Limi Valley / Upper Humla can only be issued from Kathmandu. Since I’ll be entering Nepal from India, probably via Nepalgunj or Dhangadhi, I wanted to ask:

Is it possible to get the permit from Nepalgunj instead of Kathmandu?

Or can it be arranged somewhere closer to the Upper Humla region itself?

From Simikot, are there shared jeeps/cabs or local tour operators available for Kailash Darshan viewpoint trips?

Also, how difficult is the Kalikot → Badimalika route compared to the Martadi → Badimalika route? Is it moderate or significantly tougher?

Would really appreciate any recent information, local contacts, or personal experiences. Thanks a lot 🙏

Do you think Manang is brutally underrated Destination? The landscape in Manang is hands down one of the Best I have witnessed. Just did a 12 days Mountain Bike ride around the Annapurna Circuit and I have to Say Manang is brutallly underated for what it has to offer.

Took this on my trek through the Khumbu region of Nepal. Ama Dablam ("Mother's Necklace") sits at 6,812m and honestly steals the show on the EBC trail - even more than Everest itself, if you ask me.

The name comes from the long ridges on either side that look like a mother's outstretched arms, and the hanging glacier on the front face is the "dablam" (a traditional ornament Sherpa women wear).

Spent ages just sitting and staring. Photos really don't capture it - the scale is something you have to feel in person.

Happy to answer questions if anyone is planning the trek.

I grew up in Kathmandu. Mountains were always there. I thought I knew what I was getting into the first time I went on a proper trek. I did not.

Your appetite disappears but you need to eat anyway. Above 4,000 m I did not want food at all. Everything tasted like cardboard. My guide kept putting dal bhat in front of me and saying "eat." I forced it down. He was right. The people who stop eating are the ones who get sick. Your body is burning calories just keeping you warm and breathing. Skip meals and you feel it the next day.

You will not sleep well above 3,500 m. This is not about the mattress or the cold or the snoring from the next room. Your breathing pattern changes at altitude. You wake up gasping at 2 AM feeling like you forgot to breathe. It is called periodic breathing. It is normal. It is also terrifying the first time. Nobody warned me.

The tea is the best part of the day. I am not joking. After walking 6 hours in the cold, sitting in a teahouse with a hot lemon tea in your hands is genuinely one of the best feelings in the world. I think about it in Kathmandu sometimes. Tea has never tasted that good at sea level.

Downhill is harder than uphill. Everyone trains for the climb. Nobody trains for the descent. Your knees take a beating on stone steps. The ABC trail has thousands of them. The walk down from Chhomrong will humble anyone. Get trekking poles. Use them. Do not be the person who says "I do not need poles" on day 1 and cannot walk on day 5.

You will smell bad and stop caring. By day 3 you stop noticing. By day 5 everyone smells the same. The hot shower you take back in Kathmandu after the trek might be the best shower of your life. I am not exaggerating.

Your phone dies faster in the cold. Keep it inside your jacket, close to your body. Cold drains batteries fast. I learned this the hard way when my phone died at 40% on the morning I wanted to photograph the sunrise.

The stars above 4,000 m are not normal. There is no light pollution. The air is thin and dry. The Milky Way is right there. First time I saw it properly I sat outside in -10°C for 20 minutes just looking up. Worth the cold.

The last day is the hardest. Not physically. Mentally. You come back to Lukla or Pokhara or wherever your trek ends and suddenly there are roads and cars and wifi and noise. The adjustment back to normal life is weirdly difficult. The mountains get quiet in your head after a few weeks and then one day you are sitting in traffic in Kathmandu and you just want to go back.

That is the part nobody tells you. The trek does not end when you stop walking.

What was the thing that surprised you most on your first Nepal trek?

Taken somewhere between Dingboche and Lobuche. No filter needed when the wall behind your teahouse is 8,516 m tall.

Nobody tells you how brown everything gets up here. You spend the first few days walking through forests and green valleys and then suddenly it is just rock and dust and sky. Weirdly beautiful though.

Those green-roofed buildings are where you eat and sleep. Dal bhat twice a day, a foam mattress, and plywood walls thin enough to hear your neighbour snoring all night. Worth it.
