About this trip
Lower Dolpo Trek is an extremely thrilling and rewarding trek that takes you deep into the western hills of Nepal. Treks like the Everest Circuit or even the Annapurna Circuit, invite hundreds of trekkers due to its stunning mountain views. While the Lower Dolpo Trek is often taken upon by fewer travelers, it entices you with off-beaten paths, steep hills, at the core of the trek itself. Add swinging bridges over gushing rivers, and vast, quiet landscapes, this trek demands 5-7 hours of walking every day. You will get to witness cascading desert-scapes as well as the pristine beauty of the turquoise Shey Phoksundo Lake. Rows of stone-houses, traditional villages, as well as deep pine forests, this trek packs it all for you.

Holiday adventure of a lifetime. The people were very hospitable, food was good. The guides very knowledgeable. The tour operator were flexible and always available to answer any queries. Couldn't have asked for more.

My Langtang Valley, Gosainkunda Lake trek with Nepal Social Treks was overall a very good time. The valley, lakes, high pass, and climbing Cherko Ri are beautiful and challenging but all so well worth the effort.
It was a pleasure to do this trek with Prem as my guide. His knowledge and attention to every detail along the way was fabulous. He kept us on a perfect pace throughout the trek and always with a great sense of humour and positive attitude. He was a pleasure to have as a guide.
Thanks to all at Nepal Social for making it a great trek.
Cheers

Words cannot express how grateful I am to have travelled with Nepal Social Treks.
From beginning to end, I felt safe and cared for - a fete as a solo black female traveller.
In February I travelled to Everest Base Camp with Nepal Social Treks. I survived the ‘most dangerous flight in the world’, trekked across beautiful terrain at high altitudes, reaching beautiful settlements including Namche Bazaar, Gorakshep and Everest Base Camp. A once in a lifetime experience that I recommend to all.
My tour guide Biznu was exceptionally experienced and well practised on the terrain. It was amazing to see first hand the skill of an experienced Nepali tour guide. I would like to take this opportunity to say a special thank you to the porters, who carried what we could not at high altitudes and never forgot or broke anything.
Nepal Social Trekking provided excellent kit, including a duffle for clothes and sleeping bag to cover up to -20 degrees.
After travelling to Everest Base Camp, Nepal Social Treks went above and beyond - by helping to arrange a trip for me to Pokhara. In which I was able to experience another side to Nepal, the beautiful lakes and caves available.
My experience throughout (from initially enquiry email, to my flight home) I felt personally taken care of.
A special thank you to Sushila and Luna.
A massive thank you to Basu - you have founded an amazing company.

The ABC trek was amazing. Our guide and our porter, Lhakpa and Gelu, took very good care of us. Everyday was incredible.
