Â
Nepal Trail Guide is a free information resource. We put a lot of work into making sure everything we publish is accurate and useful. But trekking and travelling in Nepal involves real risks — mountains, altitude, weather, remoteness — and we want to be clear about what we are and what we are not.
Please read this before you use any information from this site to plan a trip.
Â
1. General Information Only
Everything on nepaltrailguide.com is for general informational purposes. We are not a licensed travel agency, a tour operator, a medical service, or a legal advisor. Nothing on this site should be treated as professional advice of any kind.
Trail conditions change. Permit fees change. Weather is unpredictable. Regulations get updated. Political situations shift. What was true when we wrote an article may not be true when you read it. Always verify critical information — especially permit requirements, fees, and trail conditions — from official sources before you go.
Â
2. Trekking & Adventure Activities
Trekking in the Nepal Himalayas is a serious undertaking. Many of the routes we describe reach altitudes above 4,000 metres — some significantly higher. Altitude sickness, extreme cold, sudden weather changes, and remote terrain are real hazards that have injured and killed experienced trekkers.
We strongly recommend the following before any trek:
- Consult a qualified doctor before trekking at altitude, especially if you have any pre-existing health conditions
- Purchase comprehensive travel insurance that specifically covers high-altitude trekking and helicopter evacuation
- Hire a registered, licensed guide — not just for safety but because it is now a legal requirement in many trekking areas
- Register your trek with the nearest TIMS checkpoint and inform your embassy or consulate of your itinerary
- Check current trail conditions with local trekking agencies in Kathmandu or Pokhara before you set out
Â
Nepal Trail Guide accepts no responsibility for any injury, illness, death, loss, or damage that occurs during any trek or travel activity described or referenced on this website.

3. Accuracy of Information
We do our best to keep information up to date. But we are a small team — sometimes things slip through. Permit fees, teahouse prices, transport schedules, trail closures, and visa regulations all change regularly.
We cannot guarantee that every piece of information on this site is current, complete, or error-free. Use it as a starting point, not a definitive source. For official and current information, refer to:
- Nepal Tourism Board — ntb.gov.np
- Department of Immigration, Nepal — immigration.gov.np
- Trekking Agencies Association of Nepal — taan.org.np
- Your country’s official travel advisory website
