Trekking difficulty is determined by altitude, terrain, and daily walking hours.
Suitable for beginners with average fitness. Well-defined trails, lower altitudes (below 4,000m), and shorter daily walks (4-5 hours).
Requires good fitness. Involves higher altitudes (up to 5,000m), steep ascents/descents, and longer days (6-7 hours).
For experienced trekkers. High passes (above 5,000m), remote areas, potential snow, and very long walking days (7-9 hours).
Often called the "Valley of Glaciers," this is the quintessential easy-to-moderate trek. It offers stunning Himalayan views without the extreme altitude of Everest or Annapurna. The trail is well-maintained, and the Tamang culture is rich and welcoming.
