Trekking/Hiking

Conquering high altitudes, exploring new trails, and finding peace away from the screen. Here are some of the remarkable places I've trekked.

Highlights

Annapurna Base Camp

Located in the Kaski district at 4,130m. You get to stand in a massive 360-degree mountain amphitheater surrounded entirely by towering vertical walls of snow, overlooking the massive Annapurna glacier, blooming red rhododendron forests, and cascading waterfalls.

Mardi Himal Base Camp

Situated in the Annapurna region at 4,500m. Walking along a steep, narrow ridge trail, you get to see an incredibly up-close, dramatic view of the iconic Machapuchare (Fishtail) peak right in front of you, alongside low-lying clouds drifting through the valleys below.

Gosaikunda Lake

Located in the Rasuwa district at 4,380m. You get to look out over a cluster of frozen, turquoise alpine lakes nestled between jagged, rocky ridges, with sweeping views of the Langtang range stretching across the horizon.

Poon Hill & Ghandruk Trek

A classic loop in the Myagdi and Kaski districts reaching 3,210m. You get to witness a spectacular golden sunrise illuminating the entire Dhaulagiri and Annapurna ranges, followed by walks through traditional stone-paved Gurung villages and terraced farmland.

Ama Yangri Peak

Located in the Helambu region of Sindhupalchok at 3,771m. At the summit, you get to see thousands of colorful prayer flags fluttering around a grand white chorten, offering a clear, unobstructed panorama of the Langtang and inner Himalayan peaks.
