We will arrange a tourist bus for you. It leaves in the morning (7:00 AM) and takes about 7 hours to get there. Upon arrival you will be greeted by a VCD Nepal trekking guide at the bus park and you will be transferred to the hotel. In the evening your trekking guide will come to brief you about the trekking.

DO I NEED ANY SPECIAL TREKKING GEAR TO TREK ?
A good runner and warm jacket should be alright. It’s very easy and low altitude trekking. But it really depends on the season. Please let us know beforehand so we would be able to advise you on what to bring.
