Additional Information

Trekking Info

Stay Safe

Altitude Sickness: The main and common risk while trekking above about 2500m is Altitude sickness. Altitude sickness is caused by acute exposure to low partial pressure of oxygen at high altitude. The available amount of oxygen to sustain mental and physical alertness decreases with altitude. Available oxygen drops as the air density itself, the number of molecules (of both oxygen and nitrogen) per given volume, drops as altitude increases. So don’t ignore, if you have any symptoms then descending to a lower altitude is the only option.

Water: Have some means to purify water, iodine or a fine ceramic filter are the best options. The streams should be considered polluted and whilst bottled water is often available, the disposal of plastic bottles is a problem.

Electricity in Nepal

Nepal is a developing country, Outside of major cities area electricity on trekking can be scares. You should have to pay 100-800 NRs per hour to charge goods on many lodges and also many tea-house treks, including in Annapurna base camp trek, Everest Base camp trek and many others treks also. Chargers often won't work on low power solar systems you find right up in the mountains so u can buy alternative bayonet light to electricity power plug converter, which will only works in low voltage is highlow. The standard Nepalese electrical outlet is a three-pronged triangle so bring three-pronged triangle chargers.

Nepal Climate information

Nepal is a landlocked country which lies in Hindu Kush Himalayan region. Nepal has monsoonal climate having four main seasons: spring, summer, monsoon, autumn and winter.
 

Below is a general guide to conditions at different seasons:
 

January to March (winter): In this season temperature will decrease at often 0°C (32°F) at night, with extreme cold at high elevations. It is possible to trek in places like the Everest region during the winter but due to extreme cold weather and heavy snow fall it may be quite difficult than as usual.
April to June (summer): In these months it is quite warm and dry weather. There is an abundance of blooming flowers in the Himalayas at this time, with rhododendrons, in particular, adding a splash of color to the landscape. This season is the best time to undertake mountain expeditions.
June to September (Monsoon): There will be heavy monsoonal rainfall in this season. Rains are generally lighter in high Himalayan reasons. In this season the mountain ranges are not often visible due to the clouds.
October to December (autumn): These months are cool and clear which is due to the end of monsoon, there is little dust in the air so this is the best season to visit the hilly and mountainous regions.

Everest View trek -November 2016 I highly recommend Actual Adventures Pvt. Ltd. I just returned from a fantastic trek to Namche Bazaar. Kedar Neupane went above and beyond my expectations. He handled every detail from pick-up at the airport to the stay at the guest houses along the trek. He anticipated every detail including supplying poles for walking that I forgot and helped with shipping materials back to the US. The guide Dipak was a lifesaver on the trek and coached me all the way ... See more to Namche Bazaar. He was very familiar with both the locals and the trek itself and was able to get me out on the first flight from Lukla to Kathmandu through his contacts with the local airline on the way back. If you need a friend in Nepal those are the people to be with. Home: The Netherlands Bauhaus Media Group, Inc. 1212 E.

Happy customer and remarkable trek with AA I recommend Actual Adventure for the best trekking experience in Nepal. I did Everest Base Camp trek with them and I’m very happy with the services and facilities provided by them. The company’s representatives were very kind and humble. The guide Pasang was one of the best guides I travelled with. If it was not him I would miss a lot of things way up to the base camp. Thanks to everyone.  Denmark,Odense
