Nepal is one of the favorite
destination for the trekkers of all over the world. The number of trekkers
visiting Nepal is increasing each year. In other words we can say that Trekking
in Nepal has been one the first priority for all the trekkers. Beside the wide
range of diverse features, the hospitality and the friendly behavior of Nepali
people are equally well known to all. Nepal
is also known for safe trekking place however here are some important information
which one should do/know before starting a trek to Nepal.
Do Some Research
It is always one of the best idea
to do some research about the trekking area before you go there. It is very
helpful especially for those trekkers who are planning to trek independently
without any guide or porters. You can do
the research through internet, books or consult with your friends and families
if they have already done it. This helps you to know about the geography,
culture, climate, safety, difficulty level of trekking of the area and many
more.
Hiring a Guide/Porter
Although it is not mandatory to
hire a Guide/Porter in most of the trekking region, we always suggest you to
hire one, mainly for the solo trekkers and those who are trekking in Nepal for
the first time. Due to the landslide and many other reason the trekking route
gets change from time to time, where even the trekking map does not work. So,
hiring a guide helps a lot in such situation. Beside this, guide will also help
you a lot to know about the places, serve you when you are in problem and
secure your accommodation during trek.
Proper Clothing and Trekking Gears
The most important things one
should be careful of are clothing and trekking gears. One should prepare
himself by wearing proper clothes as per the climate condition. Regarding
trekking gears, in most of the trial trekking boots and trekking poles with
small bag packs are ok. But you can add some accessories like sleeping bag,
knife, sun glasses, caps, torch etc. as per your need.
Respect the Local Culture and Tradition
Every place has their own culture
and tradition, so you have to be aware of not disrespecting their culture. In
Nepali culture mostly in the village area the decent dressing sense is highly
respected. So, don’t expose too much of body parts and wear clothes like decent
t-shirts, loose pants/trousers. Beside this, you will meet lots of local people
during the trial. They will smile and greet you saying “Namaste”, so reply them
back which will help a lot to start a conversation.
Respect the Nature
The real trekkers are not the one
who just trek, but the one who also respect and be responsible towards nature. There
is a saying “In a forest and mountains animal do not leave trash but human do, behave
like animals”. So, do not throw your
trash anywhere you like. Better collect the trash and deposit it in a place where
trash cans or baskets are kept.
