Design
and type of the trek:
Camping trek (Tented):
During the tented trek, you are completely independent.
You will sleep in a two men tent and throughout the trip
your personal cook will prepare fresh food especially for
you. A guide and porters will accompany you and often, in
the evenings, they provide the entertainment by singing
and playing music. This is a much more traditional way of
trekking and it is more interesting in remote areas. The
advantages of this kind of trek are: greater privacy compared
to lodge dormitories, a better quality of meals and meaning
of full of satisfaction of the real trekking trip.
Teahouse trek (Lodge):
Lodges is a kind of rustic mountain inn and are an exceptional
way to enjoy the trekking experience. They are the combination
of guesthouse, restaurant, and social hang out. During the
lodge trek, you will have dormitory or separate rooms. All
lodge provide a bed and blanked to keep you warm and comfortable.
We provide your food prepared by the lodge people is an
excellent way to experience the local food and culture in
the shared dining room. There is also a terrific atmosphere
in the lodge in the evenings, chatting about the day's adventures
and meeting new people. Lodge owners and staff can often
become involved in this and it is a great way to learn about
their culture. This gives the trek that true adventure feel.
A guide and porters taking care of your personal belongings.
Every porter will be carrying maximum 30 Kg. loads.
We encourage all trekkers along the Everest, Langtang,
and Annapurna treks to try our teahouse treks. Our many
years of experience along these routes have helped us find
the friendliest, cleanest, and most enjoyable teahouses
with the best views.
Adventure Thirdpole Treks has specifically
selected, where available, lodges that employ environmentally
sound practices including the utilization of solar energy.
It is always our preference to stay in accommodation that
is practicing good eco-tourism principles and this is very
important to us here at Adventure Thirdpole Treks.
Most teahouses have running water. Many have hot water
available for bathing. But we discourage our groups from
using water heated by wood fires due to lack of firewood
in most villages. Deforestation is big environmental concerns
in Nepal. They are also a great way to help and support
to local villages.
