Besides the popular treks in the Everest , Annapurna and Langtang regions, we offer a number of treks   in the non touristy trails. These off the beaten track treks  can be subdivided  in a few  categories  depending on  their remoteness, trekking difficulty, duration of the treks and whether they are newly opened routes or are in use since many years.

What makes a trek non touristy ?

Firstly trekking trails which do not have lodge facilities along the route have remained non touristy as operating treks there is not easy and  costly. Other trails  are non touristy because they are remote , the access there ( flight or drive ) is not easy. Some trekking routes receive very few visitors because they are very challenging and only experienced hikers attempt them.

Not all the off the beaten trail treks are remote or difficult. Some of them are simply off the popular trekking routes but still hardly anybody visits there , these are culturally rich, scenic and pass through beautiful countryside.

Some of these treks are known for exotic cultures, some are known for birdlife/wildlife and the others  are easy hikes in a scenic trail. Similarly,  some are popular for wildflowers and others are famous for remoteness, wilderness  and the technical climbs . Whichever trek you choose, there is one thing in common, all of them offer great views of the Himalayas.

Kindly note that any trek on  the non touristy regions  is always more expensive than the regular lodge to lodge treks/ tea house treks . This is because we have to carry all the tents, foods, equipments  and kitchen accessories by people all the way from the nearest road head.
