OUR NEPAL TREKS
Explore our full range of guided treks and adventures below. All trips are led by experienced Australian and Nepali guides with a strong focus on safety, cultural respect, and leaving a positive impact on the communities we visit.
HGA invites you to take time to breathe and immerse yourself in rich Nepali culture and spirituality, surrounded by the majestic views of the Annapurna, Chulu, Ganesh and Manaslu mountain ranges.
With a relatively short walk in, it represents one of the swiftest ways in Nepal to get amongst some really big peaks. Get amongst high sherpa villages after a few days and explore the side valleys and upper Langtang in its winter cloak.
Designed for fit and adventrous trekkers and budding mountaineers, this expedition is held in the tourist free off season to the huge snow and ice peak of Mera (6584m) and returns via the spectacular Zatra La pass into the Everest Region.
From panoramic peaks to elephant encounters, this 13-day journey offers the perfect balance of culture, nature, and excitement — all wrapped up in one unforgettable trip.
In the lower Manaslu region of Nepal underneath the Manaslu Massif and the huge peaks of Himalchuli 7892m and Buddha peak 6650m lies a fascinating network of wild roads and pastures connecting remote villages. The landscape is phenomenal and allows for descents of over 2000m. Our fully supported mountain biking trip is suited to varying abilities from expert to novice. Cheaper, more authentic and more family friendly than Mustang or Annapurna our shuttle supported trip is a must. Details coming online soon.
It can be difficult to arrange a date on one of our treks that works for you or you may have a group or a special other that you want to take privately. We have both western and Nepalese staff based in Nepal who are available to guide year round. We have run many private guiding treks to Langtang, the Annapurnas and Manaslu. We can link your trek into ongoing travel arrangements. Pricing is generally similar to that offered on our commercial treks, however you will have an experienced Nepali guide and not a western one, unless requested at extra cost. The level of independence, porterage, medical support and style of trek will influence the price. We would love to customise something for you. Get in touch!

RESPONSIBLE & ETHICAL NEPAL TREKS
Responsible tourism is core to everything we do at Himalayan Guiding Australia. We have deep roots in the Manaslu region and are committed to operating with respect for the environment, local people, and culture on every Nepal trek.
Our Key Principles
➡️ Leave every campsite better than we found it – we burn and bury all rubbish.
➡️ Minimise packaging and buy locally wherever possible.
➡️ Pay our Nepali staff fair wages directly (no agencies), insure them, and treat them like family.
➡️ Respect local customs – no sweets to children, no giving to beggars, and culturally appropriate behaviour.
➡️ Make community donations collectively through village women’s groups.
Since 2015 we have also supported reconstruction projects in Dharepani and Sirandanda villages, including building a community lodge.
