A combination of easy trekking, rafting, Nepal’s cultural sights and a chance to see some of Nepal’s wildlife, this varied trip is an ideal introduction to Nepal for people who want to trek a little, but not too much.

 

Flying into Kathmandu, we have time to discover this enthralling city and take the Everest View flight before our 5-day trek in the Annapurna foothills. Our efforts on trek are richly rewarded with scenic views from Ghorepani and Poon Hill where we can see sunrise over the Annapurna range.

​

We return to the ever-popular Lakeside region of Pokhara before embarking on a half-day gentle rafting trip and 2 nights in Chitwan National Park a for chance to see Nepal’s exciting wildlife. Returning to Kathmandu we visit the timeless city of Bhaktapur; Nepal’s former capital, now a World Heritage site.
