Trekking Grade, Altitude and Fitness

Trekking in Nepal is physically demanding and requires a good level of fitness. Some trekking experience is recommended. Acclimatisation days are used and the pace is steady, but you need to be aware of the effects of altitude sickness as your body needs time to adapt to the high altitudes encountered in Nepal.

Trekking Equipment

Kumuka provide all trekkers with a kit bag to keep their gear in whilst trekking, this is carried by porters. We also supply quality down sleeping bags and jackets which are essential for trekking at such high altitudes.
