Trekkers from all over the world regard
Tibet as an ultimate adventure travel destination for its
unlimited trekking options. Undeniably, Tibet trekking
adventures offer most insightful, enriching and fascinating
experience as you walk up a broad valley of barley, rich yak
pastures, picturesque flower-carpeted valleys, deep gorges, arid Tibetan topography that resembles a lunar landscape,
rugged high altitude deserts, successions of glacier-topped
mountains and ancient villages with their colorful prayer flags.
Treks in Tibet not only introduce you to its Himalayan peaks,
monasteries and culture but also educates you on its distinctive
flora and fauna, and chances to interact with Tibetan Nomads is
another incomparable enjoyment of trekking in Tibet. Much of
rural Tibet is still very rough and wild and for many this is
exactly what attracts them to Tibet. We are here to ensure that
you have the most comfortable trip possible for the places you
want to go and the things you want to do. We normally combine your trekking trip with
some cultural sightseeing in Lhasa so you won't miss out on anything.
Transport: A support truck transports all your food and
equipment and, while trekking, porters and/or yaks carry everything you need - you just carry your day-pack with water, camera and anything else you may need
for trekking.
Camps: All
camping equipment, except for your sleeping bag, is supplied.
This includes 2-man tents, bed mats, dining tent, toilet tent
and cooking equipment..
Guides:
Experienced Tibetan trekking guides accompany all treks.

Some areas of Tibet are not normally open
for trekking but if you let us know well ahead of time, we can apply for permit

Food:
Camping trips are accompanied
by a cook and all meals are included - a mixture of Tibetan,
Chinese and Western dishes. Boiled water is available morning
and evening to re-fill water bottles.
Mt. Kailash has the unique
distinction of being the world's most venerated holy place at
the same time that it is the least climbed. Lying 20km southeast
of Mt. Kailash and north to Namnani Peak, Lake
Manasarovar is the highest freshwater lake in the
world, with an altitude of 4,588m and an area of 412sqkm. No
planes, trains or buses journey anywhere near the region and
even with rugged over-land 4WDs the journey still requires
some strengths. It is the absolutely
ideal realm for the adventurers and mountaineers.
Mt. Everest Base Camp is
another popular trekking route. Standing at 17,000ft (5200
meters), air around Base Camp is definitely thin. No
electricity, no cement roads, no running tap water, just yaks,
dogs, gravels, rugged scenery, towering peaks, glaciers and
plenty of friendship.
Some of our sample hiking trips are listed
below. Remember, we can tailor everything.
