Nepal 17-Day Trekking Tours & Itineraries

Explore 2 trekking trips designed by local kimkim specialists to get ideas for your trip to Nepal.

A little over two weeks is enough time to really go off the beaten path in Nepal. One unique excursion is a trek to Upper Mustang, also known as the Kingdom of Lo. This portion of Nepal was its own separate kingdom until 1950, and its location on the Tibetan Plateau means it has preserved much of its ancient Buddhist traditions. The trek is relatively easy (the highest point is 12,467 feet/4,800 meters) and passes incredible landscapes and sites such as the “sky caves”—a network of thousands of caves carved into the mountain walls. Or you could embark on a lengthy hike north of Kathmandu, from the Bhote Kosi River to the Langtang Valley and its panoramic views of snow-capped Himalaya.
