Description
On this magnificent 17 day trekking expedition, I would like to guide around the Ganesh Himal mountain range.
Full of amazing peaks, including Yangra (7,422m), Pabil (7,104m), Salasungo (7,043m), and many more, this area is absolutely breathtaking. And on this trek, anytime you look up, you will be able to gaze at a number of these incredible peaks.
Along with the stunning peaks, you will also get to visit a number of wonderful local Nepalese villages. And because many of the villages you will see on this trek are located close to the Tibetan border, much of the culture you will get to immerse yourself in is distinctively Tibetan influenced.
Some examples of the villages we will visit, and spend the night in, during this trek through the Ganesh Himal range include the following.
Borang
Chalish
Sertung
Tipling
Gatlang
Syabru Bensi
Every village offers its own unique experience. In some of the villages you will get to visit natural hot springs, monasteries, yak farms, valleys, mines and much more. Furthermore, the views you will get from each village are nothing short of incredible. Whether it’s during sunrise or sunset, gazing at amazing mountains like Manaslu (8,156m) or other peaks in Annapurna is something you will remember for the rest of your life.
A wonder of exploration, this 17 day trek through the Ganesh Himal range is incredible. You will doubtlessly end the trip a much different person than you were when you began. The views and cultural influence is that amazing. To find out for yourself, just send me a request.
Would you like to explore the area around the great Manaslu mountain? Then come and join me on this 17 day trekking expedition.

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
