TEA HOUSE TREK
As the expression indicates, TEA HOUSE
TREK is a synonymous to stop at trailside
shady rickety places for a cup of tea or
for a break after long walking in the olden
days. 
With the recent development of a huge number
of trekkers in the mountains of Himalayas,
the open air ’Tea Houses’ is
converted into modern luxury lodges and
hotels. In the most popular trekking areas,
trekkers simply carry their personal clothings
and stay in the lodges where one can order
food from menu provided by lodges or National
Park Committee. A guide helps choosing the
right lodges for trekkers and arranges the
billings after overnight stay in the lodge.
Since Nepal is the richest in terms of
mountains in our planet earth, all the criss-cross
trails in mountains are trodden down by
either human being or cattle or mystical
creature (Yeti) found in the myth.
Note: sometimes, a tea
house offers many standard food but chances
are very rare since most of the tea houses
offers simple basic meals. Although many
hotels in the hills are reasonably comfortable,
in some cases, the places may be dirty,
often smoky. Home Chimneys are rare, so
room on the 2nd floor of houses can turn
into an intolerable smoke houses as soon
as someone lights the cooking fire in the
kitchen below.
 Nature
Trail, an eco-friendly trekking company, always chooses and recommends along the
trailside eco-lodges whoever uses kerosene
(gas) oil or solar energy to generate heats
for cooking and warming the dining hall
or also other purposes.
The benefit of Tea-House trek is that by
arranging our food accommodation locally,
we can move at our own pace and set our
own schedule and most importantly experience
the real life style of the rural people.
CAMPING TREK
 Camping trek is the type of trek where all
the trekking gears such as tents, mattresses,
sleeping bags, toilet tents, kitchen tens,
kitchen utensils, and so on…. will
be provided by us along with a certain numbers
of supporting staff and guide based on the
size of the group. A chief guide will be
employed to handle the whole trekking program.
However, while you are on a camping trek,
you will have to stick to the program and
schedule which is pre-arranged by the chief
guide. All meals will be prepared on the
way using the fresh vegetables available
in the surrounding area. Some tinned food
will also be served.
Nature Trail, an eco – friendly trekking
company, is proud to be a pioneer in environmentally
and culturally sensitive adventure travel
in South Asia. We set the standard, for
example, by replacing wood-burning cook
fires with fuel-burning stoves not only
where regulated, but on all our treks. We
are actively involved in environmental concerns
such as garbage collection and disposal
and co-founded and eco-trekking programs
which trains other trekking companies’
staff in eco-tourism. Our company is known
for taking care of our porters and for offering
all of our staffs excellent compensation,
benefits, and incentives.
TYPICAL DAY IN A CAMPING TREK:
 Usually our day on a camping trek starts
with a cup of bed tea around 6:30 am, and
follow by washing basin filled with warm
water to freshen up for another exciting
day. While you are enjoying with a light
breakfast: bread, jam, boiled egg, tea or
coffee depending on your choice, our supporting
staff pack up the tents and equipments and
move ahead to find another suitable place
to prepare lunch. Under the sunshine around
12:00 to 1:00 lunch will be served amidst
mountain fresh air. After lunch, the last
of the day's trek is done which usually
takes 1and half to 2hrs of walk. Our supporting
staff will put up the tents and will start
preparing dinner; around 7:00 pm dinner
will be served and the day ends creeping
into sleeping bag. Under the right environment,
trekking crews will entertain you by singing
dancing and telling stories or playing cards
etc. At evening, occasionally culture show
can be arranged on request together with
local people and trekking crews.
A DAY HIKE:
 People who loves nature and wood-walking
but can’t make do without modern amenities
for a night stay, can enjoy the day’s
walk and get back to the hotel at night.
Several hill-locks and mounds surrounded
the Kathmandu valley and Pokhara which make
perfect for a day’s hike. Be close
with nature by listening to waterfalls,
birds chirping and twittering, trees whistling
while letting go the whispering wind and
the sun penetrating through intermingled
branches of sub-tropical to bless you with
pleasant day.
For one who desires to spend overnight
in the tented camp or in your own caravan
motors, to feel the uniqueness of the night,
you have comfortable bed to sleep under
the indigenous work of thatched roof, bone
fire to warm up and to eat a delicious food
prepared by professional cook.
