The himalaya have been called ‘the wild heart of Asia’ revered as the abode of the gods, the himalaya from the magic landscape which never fails to impress the visitor, be it the lush green valleys, massive glaciers, rugged high pastures, roaring rivers or royal snow covered peaks. The Himalaya are the home of mountain people such as the Sherpas, as well as the legendary snow leopards, blue sheep, yak, and - why not? - The Yeti. A trekking in the Himalaya not only brings physical satisfaction; it allows the visitor to journey through as ancient culture, which is steeped in the Buddhist religion. Pumori Adventure trekking, with than 15 years of experience in high altitude trekking, makes it possible for you to choose from many trekking programs, with eight different destinations in Nepal: Kathmandu valley, Helambu, Langtang, east Nepal and west Nepal.

In the Himalaya, trekking for pleasure is a relatively new phenomenon. It was not until 1953, when Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay Sherpa scaled Mount Everest that Nepal was put on the map as a mountaineers and trekkers destination. Many people still do not know that trekking does not have to be agonizingly difficult. Most treks follow old trails with good facilities on the way. Trekking a lower altitude for an instance in the Helambu (max. 3200m) or Langtang (max 3800m) strongly reduces the chance of a large temperature drops or altitude sickness. Trails are often steep, but you can walk at your own peace, enjoying the extra comfort of good, camping chairs and toilet, a well trained guide, as well as experienced porters.
