Types of Trekki Based on trekking difficulty level, remoteness, and availability, there are three types of trekking in Nepal. Among them, Tea House Treks are common and widely organized by treks and tour operators in Nepal. En route to the popular trekking trails, we can easily find tea houses but for the remote part of Nepal, where only a few human settlements are available, Camping Treks are the only option to discover such places. For those travelers who are more interested in getting insight into the cultural aspects of Nepal, Homestay Trek is the best. As a reputed treks and tour operator in Nepal, Nepal Adventure Team provides you with all three types of trekking in Nepal.

Trekking in Nepal is divided into three categories:

  • Tea house (lodge) trek
  • Camping and organized trek
  • Homestay Trek

Tea House (Lodge) Trek

Tea house trekking, also known as lodge trek is a tea house based on one of the popular trekking forms in Nepal where trekkers get a good meal and get to sleep in a proper bed at the end of the day. In the mountainous famous trekking trails, such as Everest Trekking Region, Annapurna Trekking Region, and Langtang Trekking Regions, you can find plenty of such tea house accommodations providing comfort, and safety, along with fulfilling the daily needs of the trekkers, guides, and porters. Even if you are trekking in secluded and isolated trekking regions, you will be able to find a tea house during one or two stops of your trekking days.

Most of the Tea houses are run by the local villagers or family members. Normally, all the tea houses offer private or shared bedrooms, bathrooms, toilets, restaurants, and hygienic meals because the food at tea houses is prepared by using Agro-products (wheat, barley, corn, rice, and many others) which are delicious to eat such as Dal Bhaat with curry, pickle, spinach, salad, and yogurt.

Fully Organized (Camping) Trek

A fully Organized Trek, also known as Camping Trek is another popular form of trekking in Nepal. With Tea houses (Lodge Treks), the Nepal adventure Team also organizes a Camping Trek to visit the remote part of trekking regions in Nepal which are popular for their off-the-beaten-path treks such as Upper and Lower Dolpo Trekking Regions, Manaslu Trekking Regions, Kanchenjunga Trekking Regions, Nah Phu Valley Trekking Regions. One of the major advantages of Camping treks is you can have an exclusive experience of the raw Himalayas that are untouched by human settlement.

If you are a wanderlust person and want to travel the road not taken with a team of experienced guides and a strong porter team carrying all the personal gear including camping equipment, kitchen utensils, and goods for eating then Camping Treks is for you. Even though camping treks are expensive and it increases your budget for trekking it is worth trying once because:

You can unlock the eternal beauty of the remote part of Nepal

Providing employment opportunities for a guide, assistant guide, porter, cook, kitchen helper, or camp helper as a crew member, means you are contributing to the tourism industry in Nepal

You don’t have to share the trekking trails with other fellow trekkers

Can hear your guides and porters' real-life stories because you are going to spend your entire journey with them and who knows maybe you would find something interesting to write about on a travel blog in your journal.

Prepared your own planned hygienic and delicious meals during the trek.

Homestay Trek

Homestay Trek is another form of trekking in Nepal, it is similar to the Tea House (Lodge) trek but in a Homestay Trek, you can have a more authentic experience of trekking in Nepal. Homestay offers the true essence of living like a part of a local family and gives an insight into the local culture and tradition in depth. If you want to do a cultural and religious trek in Nepal, then Homestay Trek is the best way to understand the local norms and values where you can try the local kitchen and discover the rural lifestyle in depth. Among the many Homestays Trek in Nepal Homestay in Pokhara, Ghandruk, Dhampus, Ghale Gaon, Tamang Heritage, and Tsum Valley is the best example of Homestay Trekking in Nepal where you can have a significant glimpse of the rich local culture and traditions.
