Overview

Helambu trek is one of the shortest treks and specially designed for those who want to take a break and enjoy trekking in short time available. Helambu region lies at the northern side of Kathmandu and is an easy and comfortable trek compared to others. The walk mostly passes through the plain area but there are also occasional uphill and downhill walking. The trail passes through Sherpa settlement area where we can explore the traditionally and culturally rich Sherpa lifestyle. In addition to this, the trek offers the extraordinary beauty of natural landscapes, hills, valleys, colourful rhododendron forests and number of rivers, brooks, waterfalls and streams along the way.
