After Earthquake Everest region
This region includes the Everest Basecamp Trek. The overriding response by international experts has been positive – that for trekkers you will see very little in the way of damage along the Everest Base Camp Trail. Assessment of this region was completed on foot and via aerial inspection, covering 15 villages (beginning in Lukla) and over 700 buildings. The summarisation of the assessment concluded that the region has sustained very little in the way of trail damage and 83% of buildings have been given a positive report. The vast majority of other buildings (teahouses, residential and commercial) should be easy to repair, with re-construction in process. Further assessment will need to be done on other routes within the Khumbu/Everest region, post monsoon in the autumn.
The iconic and classic Everest Base Camp brings you to the base of the highest mountain on earth. A worthy itinerary on any trekker’s wish list.

Helambu region is located north-east of Kathmandu valley which is just 72 kms away from Kathmandu valley offering pristine thick forests of rhododendron with diverse ranges of landscapes of stunning green valleys, awesome views of snow-capped peaks and interesting Hindu and Tibetan Buddhist cultures. An amazing journey to Helambu Valley panorama trek is a fascinating best short trekking destination which is close from Kathmandu valley.

The entire journey to Helambu valley hiking leads to dazzling glimpses of high Himalayan range of local culture and charming villages inhabited by Tamang and Hyolmo’s ethnic tribe, where trekkers can observe this rich tradition and culture similar to Tibet. People of Helambu are mostly farmers and Sheppard’s with traditional handmade wooden handicrafts, a complete rural country life; this trip offers an opportunity to familiarize with local natives of Helambu reputed for their grand hospitality and rich cultures including their rituals, traditional architectures, and costumes.

After Earthquake Helambu
It is very much affected by the quake where heavy landslides are highly likely to occur during mansoon period.

Manaslu Circuit

It is the fascinating adventure beginning from the warm area of Arughat Bazaar situated in the Nepal mid-west. Around Manaslu & Larke la treks follows Budhigandaki River upstream all the way for its source of Larke phedi via the warm sub-tropical mediterranean alpine to the dry arctic climatic zone, this is certainly a fabulous journey with an opportunity visiting the age of old Tibetan origin religion and culture preserved hundreds of years in the shade of Mt. Manaslu, world’s 09th highest with views of Ngadi Chuli, Himalchuli and Baudha Himal & Ganesh Himal (Yangra) towards east and Mt. Annapurna towards west. This fabulous area is protected from Manaslu Conservation Area Project (MCAP) since 1998, as this area is rich in flora and fauna with ancient culture and it is close to Tibet border as well. Manaslu region located in central Nepal has opened up travelers in 1991 but the Mountain itself had been open earlier for mountaineering expeditions.


The Manaslu Circuit begins in the Ghurkha District and the trail follows a spectacular route around the world’s eight highest mountain. It is also possible to trek into the Tsum Valley as an extension to the Manaslu Circuit and to trek to Manaslu Base Camp.
There has been fairly extensive damage to the eastern portion of the route, essentially the first 40km of trail. The primary source of damage has been from landslides lining the route that follows the Buri Gandaki valley.
Currently a team are working together to clear this section and to re-route it. This will also include the building of two bridges – construction of which is not due to be completed until November (though this may be earlier).    
There has been some rock fall on the Larkya La (pass), the high point of the trek, though the village of Samdo, preceding the pass and the villages on the western slopes of the Larkya La are reported to be in good, usable condition.
A team is in the process of assessing the structural damage of teahouses and buildings. The primary point for trekkers to be aware of is the completion of the bridges on the initial part of the trek. This will determine when the route will be officially re-opened. There may also be limited, if any accommodation available on the first 2-4 days of the trek and trekkers will have to be prepared to be self-sufficient and consider a tented expedition, rather than staying in teahouses.
By all accounts we believe that the Manaslu Circuit will be suitable for trekking in November and confident that at the very latest by March 2016, the region will be fully operational. The Manaslu Circuit is one of the finest treks in the Himalaya and not to be missed.

Annapurna Base-Camp
Annapurna is a massif in the Himalayas in north-central Nepal that includes one peak over 8,000 meters (26,000 ft), thirteen peaks over 7,000 meters (23,000 ft), and sixteen more over 6,000 meters (20,000 ft). The massif is 55 kilometers (34 mi) long, and is bounded by t5he Kali Gandaki Gorge on the west, the Marshyandi River on the north and east, and by Pokhara Valley on the south. At the western end the massif encloses a high basin called the Annapurna Sanctuary. Annapurna is the tenth highest mountain in the world at 8,091 meters (26,545 ft) above sea level.
Annapurna is a Sanskrit name which literally means “full of food”, but is normally translated as Goddess of the Harvests. According to Devdutt Pattanaik, Annapoorna devi is”… the universal and timeless kitchen-goddess….the mother who feeds. Without her there is starvation, a universal fear. This makes Annapurna a universal goddess… Her popular shrine islocated in Varanasi, on the banks of the Ganges River.” Her association with the giving of food (wealth) led her in the time to be transformed into Lakshmi, the Goddess of Wealth.
The Annapurna Conservation Area (7,629 km) is a well known trekking region.
