Nepal 20-Day Trekking Tours & Itineraries

Explore 3 trekking trips designed by local kimkim specialists to get ideas for your trip to Nepal.

With nearly three weeks you can explore much of the mountain kingdoms and tropical lowland jungles of Nepal. For a trekking adventure that incorporates the highlights, embark on the Annapurna Circuit, which takes you from the capital of Kathmandu to high altitude lakes like Tilicho to the lake city of Pokhara, with its 360° views of the snow-capped Himalaya. To get away from the crowds and commune with the majesty of Nepal, trek to the Humla region, located in the northwest of the country. This almost spiritual journey will take you amid the hot springs and Buddhist monasteries of the stunning Limi Valley as you travel ever upward and over mountain passes at an incredible 16,000 feet (4,900 meters) in altitude.
