Experience village life on a

walking holiday in Nepal

The wildlife is exotic, and the routes are very varied, but what strikes you most when walking in Nepal’s Mid-Hills are the astonishing views. You make your way from one remote village to the next, staying in guesthouses run by local people who welcome you wholeheartedly into their community and delight in showing you their traditional ways of life. It is true that the accommodation is simple, but the insights you gain through this privileged access to mountain communities is what makes this such an adventure, and memories from your walking holiday in Nepal will stay with you forever.

Thrilling yet accessible walking in Nepal

Our walking holiday in Nepal introduces you to the Mid-Hills, which are located to the east of Kathmandu. Here, the views extend down into deep valleys and across a series of ridges that ripple towards the Himalayas.

Is our walking holiday in Nepal right for you?

Our walking holiday in Nepal is aimed at fit walkers (this is not trekking) – the distances are not long, and your luggage is transported for you, but the ascents and descents are demanding, especially given the altitude. To help you decide if it’s for you, read how we grade our holidays.

Grade 1

Generally easy walking with few ascents / descents, but perhaps the occasional long day.
Grade 1-2

Easy-to-moderate walking with some ascents / descents, and occasional longer days.
Grade 2

Moderate walking on varied terrain, with some long days and regular ascents / descents.
Grade 2-3

Moderate-to-challenging walking on more rugged terrain with significant ascents / descents on most days. Compass skills may be required (check the individual holiday).
Grade 3

Challenging hikes, featuring long days with significant ascent / descent on challenging terrain. Compass skills may be required.
Flexible

Choice of easier or harder routes, so that you can tailor most days to your requirements.

Why choose Inntravel for your walking holiday in Nepal?

Our walking holiday in Nepal differs from our standard formula in that, although you are still not part of a group, you walk accompanied by your own local guide who knows the area intimately and acts as your interpreter during conversations with the people you encounter along the way.

Village Ways

Our walking holiday in Nepal has been specially conceived for Inntravel guests by Village Ways, a unique concept in sustainable tourism that supports remote communities while promising you a truly unforgettable adventure.
A warm welcome

You mostly stay in community-run guesthouses which are much simpler than the accommodation we offer elsewhere, with very basic facilities. What makes them special is that they are right at the heart of remote communities, providing unique insights into local life.
