Nepal Trekking Grade - Trekking Grade in Nepal, Trekking Grade Nepal, Nepal Trekking Grades

For many of our treks, you can choose between staying in tea-house or camping. A tea-house is a local run guest house, but standards vary enormously. In popular areas such as Annapurna, tea houses are more like hotels, with hot water, Western food and private rooms, whereas in remote areas, they are far simpler and more authentically Nepali. Tea-house trekking is less expensive than camping, and is suitable for small groups. With large groups, irrespective of the area, it is more practical to camp. A team of guides, porters and cooks mean you trek in comfort and provide international-style food of a high standard.

The following grading system explains carefully which level of tour suits you best for your level of fitness and physical capabilities, helping you to prepare for your trip.
