Description
If you wish to go on a long, transformative journey of your life, the Great Himalayan Trail is for you!
Undoubtedly one of the longest treks in the world, the Great Himalayan Trail will take you over 10 high passes, winding around many high peaks, uphill and downhill from one corner of Nepal to another in a spectacular landscape.
The journey can last up to 160 days and during this time, you’ll walk through a varied terrain of mountains, lush valleys, pasturelands and arid zones, crossing numerous rivers, lakes and pristine streams. So, come, join us on this mind-blowing journey of your life!
The trek has so much to offer. It takes you through every emblematic area of Nepal including the regions of Annapurna, Kanchenjunga, Manaslu and many more and covers almost all short treks including the iconic Everest Base Camp Trek.
We’ll begin and end the journey in Kathmandu. From there, you will venture into unexplored terrains, in remote areas, surrounded by awe-inspiring mountains. Apart from the amazing vistas of peaks as high as 8000m, you’ll also explore limestone caves, semi-arid deserts, caves, glaciers, national parks and gorges on the way. Also, walking through so many villages, you’ll be visiting many monasteries, temples, and stupas and be enriched to learn about the lifestyle and culture of native people.
Of course, the trek will test you both physically and mentally. On most days, we’ll be walking over 3000 m for around 5-6 hours on narrow trails and steep ridges and it might really get exhausting sometimes. So, you must be in great physical shape with a firm determination and a high spirit with previous trekking experience to get on board.
But it wouldn’t be wrong to say that it will be the most unforgettable journey of your life!
Our local guides know the area well and will ensure your safe journey throughout the trek, even in extreme terrains with no water, food or tea house.
So, are you ready for this adventure of a lifetime? Send us a message to inquire further and to book your tickets. If you hear that voice inside of you, the trek is for you!
We also guide other treks like Rara Lake Trek and Limi Valley Trek.

What people are saying about Explore-Share
Man
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.
