Trail Length

The distance between base camp and Pokhara is around 81.1 kilometers. It is the highest distance that you cover during the trek. There are many downhill, uphill, rugged trails and glacier walking. For any normal person, trekking that distance is not an easy activity. Long distance trekking can become tiring but end result is rewarding.

Altitude Sickness

Altitude sickness is the biggest factor in this trip. The maximum height on this trip is 3210 m from sea level. Therefore, AMS can happen. However, it is not very serious altitude to get caught by the altitude sickness. Trip starts from Pokhara which is at 800 m. The change in altitude is the major cause of altitude sickness. Proper acclimatization is needed. Therefore, our itinerary focuses more on the client’s safety.

Weather & Climatic Conditions

Nepal’s mountain region has unpredictable weather and climatic conditions. Day temperature is normal but night hours are pretty freezing. Weather can change drastically in just an hour. Expect unexpected changes in climate and weather. However, the team will analyze the situation and only decide whether to push or not.

Trekking Preparation

The best way to prepare for climbing is by doing cardiovascular workouts. These kinds of cardio exercises help to increase lung capacity. In order to climb the mountain, you need strong and healthy lungs.

Do some strength-building training like planks, push-ups, and squats. Cycling is also the best option to prepare your body for climbing. Always start these activities 4-5 months before traveling to Nepal for climbing.

    Great experience in Langtang with Sorbit and Ram
Excellent experience on the Langtang Valley Trek guided Sorbit (Sofi) with Ram as our porter. Sorbit and Ram were very accommodating and made sure we had fun even on the days of the walk we found a bit more challenging. Sorbit had great energy, lots of funny stories and was really quick at spotting wildlife, so we got to see lots of monkeys and deer! Ram was such a legend for carrying our stuff, we could not have done this trek without their support. Langtang was a great mix of Forrest walking and mountain views, so would recommend for anyone looking for a week long trek.

    Poon hill trek 🫶
I had an amazing time during my four day poon hill trek and want to thank my amazing guide Anil for being there with me!! 🫂🙏 If you have thought about trekking in Nepal but feel overwhelmed by the idea of that, don’t fear! With the careful planning and execution by the trekking company you don’t have anything to worry about. Everything was organised carefully and although it is sometimes challenging it’s also made comfortable to enjoy with the help of your guide. Anil was amazing at checking in making sure I was comfortable, organising all my meals and helping with overnight stays as well as offering me friendly company and laughs throughout and his extreme patience has not gone unnoticed. Thanks so much for looking after me on this trek, I had an amazing time on the mountain and felt inspired and grounded. I leave with a special place for this area in my heart. I feel like I learnt so much on my short time in the mountain ⛰️ Thank you Anil and thanks to the tour company for putting together such a special achievable first trek in this beautiful country 🇳🇵

    EBC trek with female guide october 2025
My EBC trek was an amazing experience! Everything was very well organized, and my female guide Samikshya Bajagain took great care of me throughout the journey. Even when things didn’t go exactly as planned, she handled every situation very professionally and with a positive attitude. I always felt safe and supported. The company leader Simbir Ghale was always available and found a solution for everything. I highly recommend trekking with her and with the company — a truly great experience!

    Mardi Himalaya Trek
My husband John and myself cannot fault our trek to Mardi Himal with Guide/porter Suza. It was a Nepali Festival time and the track was very busy. Suza made sure we had comfortable lodgings by booking ahead. We never had to worry about not having somewhere to lay down and rest our tired legs!! He was easy company always around if we needed anything. He joined us playing cards in the evenings - winning too often! We had to change the schedule a bit due to unpredicted weather (rain) - no problem Suza ‘s experience and local knowledge made this easy too. Thanks Suza, we’re really happy to have had you as our guide and really enjoyed the trek.

    I completed an unforgettable 11-day trek to Poon Hill and Annapurna Base Camp with Himalaya View Treks, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. The company was incredibly flexible and well-organized, tailoring the trip to our preferences and ensuring everything ran smoothly.
Our guide Suraj kept us motivated and informed throughout, while our porter Anil was always cheerful and helpful — both were fantastic. Special thanks to Simbir for coordinating everything so efficiently and making the whole journey seamless. The stunning views, rich culture, and the team’s support made this adventure truly memorable. Highly recommended!

    The 12-day EBC trek with this agency was awesome, the manager was very attentive since the first contact and explained every question with detail. During the trek my guide Anil was excellent, he knows the mountains very well and helps you whenever you need something.

    I planned a 12 days trek by myself but I was looking for a guide. 3 days before leaving to Nepal I have found the agency Himalaya View Treks. From the start the communication was open and easy. Everthing was taken care of only in a few days for everthing to be ready when I arrived. I met my guide in Pokhara. We had beautiful moments together. I really recommand to trek with *Bishal Kulung Rai*. I felt very confortable with him. We had really nice talks but he knew also when to give me the time alone that I was looking for during this trek. He was very supportive, helpful and flexible regarding my requests. In overall, it was a perfect experience ! 🙏🏻💜🏔️🇳🇵
