Starting with a scenic drive from Kathmandu to Trisuli Bazaar the trek to Ganesh Himal begins along the foothill visiting primitive villages and offers great views of Ganesh Himal (7429 m), Manaslu (8163 m) and Himalchuli (7540 m). The fantastic mountain scenery and close proximity to Kathmandu make this one of our favorite treks.

The Spectacular remote camping trek to Ganesh Himal follows the least trodden trail far from the madding crowd in the central Himalayan range of Nepal. Walk through the culturally rich unspoiled ethnic villages and dense forest with gorgeous Himalayan flora and fauna on the back dropped of the breath taking mountain range of Ganesh, Manasalu and Langtang are the main attraction on this remote camping trip to Ganesh Himal trekking.

This trekking provides unusual sights of the traditional life story of the people and un- spoilt wilderness. The trekking commences from Syabru Besnsi to Chilime Khola with an attractive panorama of the Ganesh Himal. This trek is for around 2 weeks.

Gorkha is situated 131 km west of Kathmandu at an altitude of 1135m. north of the Kathmandu Pokhara Highway at Abu Khaireni. From Gorkha to Pokhara there is a comfortable six or seven night trek for all types of trekkers through the land of the famous Gorkha warriors. Gorkha is the historic town and the birthplace of King Prithbi Narayan Shah, the founder of modern Nepal. It is also the ancestral home of the Shah kings of Nepal.

This spot is situated on a hill overlooking the snowy peaks of the Himalayas. There is an ancient palace to see and the temple of Gorkhanath. From the top of the hill above the Gorkha Palace and from a saddle east of the Bazaar, a spectacular view of Manaslu and Himalchuli peaks are possible

Altitude Sickness

Many people are concerned about altitude sickness. This problem, often known as acute mountain sickness (AMS), is a particularly important medical consideration while trekking in Nepal and Tibet. AMS rarely occurs lower than 2800 meters (9520ft) and only minor symptoms occur below 3000 meters (9,800ft). AMS occurs when the body does not adapt well to the lack of oxygen present at higher altitudes. At 5490 meters (18,000ft), there is just half the oxygen available as there is at sea level, while there is only a third available at the summit of Mount Everest. The itineraries of the treks of Itreknepal are designed to reduce the risk of altitude sickness as much as possible, although individual susceptibility to altitude sickness seems to be genetically determined. What happens to the body during altitude illness? The body tries to adapt to having less available oxygen by increasing the rate and depth of breathing, as well as the heart rate. Fluids accumulate in between the cells in the brain, the lungs or both, creating mild to severe symptoms. Mild symptoms include headache, loss of appetite, nausea, fatigue, insomnia and dizziness. These symptoms are usually resolved by spending one or two extra nights at the same altitude. If symptoms worsen, descent to lower altitudes is warranted. If you are resting at the same altitude and your symptoms worsen, then it is also necessary to descend. More serious symptoms of AMS include increased tiredness, severe headaches, vomiting, loss of coordination, shortness of breath and coughing fits. These extremely dangerous symptoms are called high altitude cerebral edema (or HACE). They can lead to unconsciousness and death within 12 hours. Increasing shortness of breath, cough and tiredness may also be signs of high altitude pulmonary edema or HAPE. This condition can rapidly prove to be fatal if ignored. Respiratory depression (the slowing down of breathing) can be caused by various substances, and may be a problem at altitude.
