The Numbur Cheese Trek in the beautiful Nepal is an alternative trekking route less often explored. It is located in the Gauri Shankar conservation area and offers a unique experience of the Nepal culture and landscapes! On this 2 week Numbur Cheese Trek, I will gladly guide you to some of its most breathtaking spots.
Before we begin our trek, we will meet in Kathmandu. There, we will have some time to acquaint ourselves with the city. Then we will take a private bus to Shivalaya which is the access point of our trek. From there onwards, we will begin a slow ascent to Thare Kharka. Every day we will walk between 4-5 hours. This will give us time to rest and acclimatise to the high altitudes. On the way, we will see Sherpa villages, stunning Himalayan peaks, amazing wildlife and of course, we will try some typical Nepal Yak cheese!
After Thare Kharka, on day 8, we will aim for the highest point our trek, the lovely Gjayo La. Then we will descend to Ngeju Karka before returning to Shivalaya. We will take a different route on our descent to Shivalaya and cover between 6-7 hours of trekking every day. Once back in Kathmandu, we will do some more sightseeing before finally returning home.
Because we will be trekking to high altitudes and spending long days on our feet, it is important to have a good fitness level! Of course, I will be there to guide and help you. We also offer medical assistance on the way to ensure you are always well cared for!

We will meet in Kathmandu and explore this beautiful city. Then we will take a private bus to Shivalaya which is the starting point of our trek (1790m).
For the next few days, we will head in the direction of Thare Kharka. Every day we will walk approximately 3-4 hours and sleep in tents.
On day 8 we will ascend to the highest point of our trek at the Gyajo La Pass (4880m). Then we will descend to the Ngeju Kharka (3690m)
We will begin our descent to Shivalaya taking a longer route. Every day we will trek between 6 to 7 hours. Once we reach Shivalaya we will again take a private bus to Kathmandu.
We will have time to explore the stunning city of Kathmandu with its many temples and sights.

Mountain Guide
IFMGA/UIAGM mountain guide
I come from Marseille and I found my passion for mountaineering very early, climbing Les Calanques, some mountains in the Verdon region and in the Alps. I got my IFMGA (mountain guide) certificate in 1983 and my ski instructor license in 1985.
I brought my clients on many summits of the Alps and went abroad to discover the world. I went skiing, climbing, mountaineering… in Morocco, Norway, Algeria (Hoggar), Yosemite (El Capitan) and Nepal. I discovered this passion for travelling and started to organize my first trips with my clients. In the late 80’, I went to the Annapurna Sanctuary and I did several ascents in Peru (Pisco, Yanapatcha and Huascaran). In the 90’, I did several trips in Nepal (Helambu, Langtang…).
I then kept on and further explored the world with my clients: Rolwaling traverse (Perchamo, Mera Peak Mingbo La), the summits of Yala Peak and the Yana Kanga, Patagonia (in Argentina), Manaslu tour in Nepal, Meso Kanto La, Mustang, Atacama desert in chili and many others.
I like bringing my clients mountaineering in summer and ski touring / heliskiing in winter.

Hervé est fort à l'écoute de son client, il cerne très bien les attentes et les envies. Il est aussi très rassurant et porte une attention particulière au bien-être de chacun. Il a beaucoup d'expérience, on sent qu'il connaît bien la montagne et il est prudent. Enfin, il est discret et sympatique. Je le recommande vivement !
Many thanks for 3 great days of snow powder and amazing views in the 3 vallees. Knowledgeable, cautious and takes peoples tempo and abilities into account, adapting to needs.
Great moments of fun and found some lush powder in difficult conditions.
