Travelers in Nepal provide huge options from the capital, Kathmandu, to the travel hub Himalayas. The diversity allows people of many ages and capabilities to attempt a trek in Nepal.

Besides what many may perceive, trekking in Nepal is not necessarily wandering alone through an uncharted wilderness.

Compared to the other trekking regions with the Dopla region, the rainfall is less in the monsoon season, so that you can trek around June, July, and August. You will also have the opportunity of seeing the 800 years old monastery known as ‘Shey Gompa.’
This trek is quite different from other trekking routes since you will be passing through the beautiful lakes of Nepal; Shey Phoksundo lake (the deepest lake in Nepal) and Rara Lake (The largest Lake in Nepal).
