Nepal: Trekking, Jungles, and Cultural Discovery — From Himalayan Peaks to Wild Lowlands
Nepal is rightly celebrated as a trekking paradise—but it’s also a country rich in spiritual depth, cultural vibrancy, and striking ecological diversity. This journey invites you to experience both the soaring beauty of the Himalayas and the lush, wildlife-rich lowlands of Chitwan National Park.
Our adventure begins with the Ghorepani—Ghandruk Trek, also known as the Poon Hill Trek. Over five days, we’ll hike from village to village, staying in cozy teahouses, walking through rhododendron forests bursting with spring blooms, and sharing moments with welcoming locals. The views of the Annapurna range from Poon Hill at sunrise are nothing short of magical.
After completing our trek we travel south to explore a completely different side of Nepal in Chitwan National Park. Known for its dense jungle and rich biodiversity, this UNESCO World Heritage site is home to elephants, crocodiles, and the rare one-horned rhinoceros. We’ll explore by canoe, enjoy jungle walks, and learn about local conservation efforts.
From the majestic Himalayas to the steamy lowland jungles, this trip offers an unforgettable glimpse into the diverse landscapes, wildlife, and traditions that make Nepal so extraordinary.

Trip Info
This trip is for women in good physical condition who enjoy lots of hiking in a beautiful setting while learning about the history, culture and cuisine of Nepal. Although for the most part the hiking is moderate, there are occasional steep ascents and descents on rocky paths. For a few days of the trek, you will be climbing up stone steps for hours at a time. The rest of the trek will be on rocky and uneven paths. The trip is rated 4, and will have 5 to 7 hours of activity everyday. The second half of this trip will be in Chitwan National Park which will be more of a Level 3 trip. Participants will enjoy this trip more if they train for a level 4 trip. Prior to the beginning of the trip, participants should be engaged in aerobic conditioning for at least 40-50 minutes 4-5 times a week.
