On the way to Everest Base Camp

Trekking in the Himalayas has always been a dream of mine. Finally this year it became a reality. It’s nearly a month and half since I got back from Nepal but it is still fresh in my mind. I never get tired of telling friends and family about the trip, and of course showing the photos!. After receiving a recommendation from a friend I contacted Himalayan Glacier Trekking and received a phone call from Naba the next day. I was very impressed by this response and all the follow up emails over the next few months as I got ready for the trek. No matter how trivial my emails were there was always a helpful answer to my questions.

I arrived in Kathmandu a couple of days early but Naba and his team had taken care of everything. pick-up, hotel and sightseeing. The highlight of these ‘rest days’ being the city tour. Our guide had a seemingly endless knowledge for the sites we visited!

Unsere Traumtour im Himalaya “Dhaulagiri Circuit mit Thapa Peak”

September 8, 2008

Gemeinsam mit unseren beiden Trägern Raskumar und Jebi sowie unserem Guide Dorji des Himalayan Glacier Trekking haben wir uns im November 2007 auf schmalen Pfaden auf den Weg zum gigantischen Bergmassiv des Dhaulagiri gemacht. Schwer bepackt mit Ausrüstung, Zelten und Essensvorräten stiegen wir entlang unzähliger Reisterassen, entlegener Bergdörfer durch grünen Dschungel in die herrliche Berg- und Eiswelt des Himalaya bis auf nahezu 6000m hinauf.

Das Trekking übertraf sämtliche Erwartungen.

My trip to Nepal was such a great experience

August 25, 2008

My trip to Nepal was such a great experience.
Thanks to the perfect organisation of HGT! All the people involved in the organisation, staff, guides, porters etc. are very professional. Above all, they have one thing on their mind: THE CLIENT

A good preparation of a trek is very important. It starts at home, with choosing a trekking-agency. From the first e-mail on, HGT felt as a very well organised organisation. They promised to call back within 24 hours. And they did! The communication with HGT is perfect, they do as they say and they always did as they promised.

Not only was the hiking and scenery incredible but the team of sherpas, porters, and staff were so knowledgable and wonderful to experience the trip with.

Everything was extremely organized and by the end I really felt like the group had become like a family and had conquered such a wonderful adventure / challenge together.

I would definitely recommend Himalayan Glacier Trekking without any question. My hometown newspaper actually wrote an article about me and I have attached it here…

the majestic Himalayan Mountains

August 24, 2008

Since I came back from my first trek in Nepal in April, I have been really busy. Indeed, the hustle and bustle of the life here is a stark contrast with the tranquility I experienced in the mountains. It makes me even more nostalgic about the trek I had with Thakur Penday as our guide.

Probably like many people who have not been to Nepal, I was looking forward to basking myself in the beauty of the majestic Himalayan mountains. No doubt, I saw the majestic Himalayan Mountains but what left me with deep impressions are the people I met. From the point we reached the airport, we felt the warmth of Nepali hospitality. We were treated more like friends rather than just mere visitors. As friends, we had the priviledge to hear from Thakur, his views of the political situation and we saw his passion for his country and his hope for the future. During the trek while we saw many porters carrying loads many times their own weight, I also saw the resilience of the people which is like the Himalayan Mountains that stood firm and sturdy in whatever weather conditions. On our day of departure, Naba came down to fetch us to the airport, even though he did not have much sleep as he was trying to help his friend the night before. I saw in him the dedication to his work as well as his kindness to his friend.

Through all these that I saw, I couldn’t help pray, “God, this is a wonderful country with wonderful people. May God bring to this country capable leaders who love the people and who will bring the country to the heights of the Himalayan mountains.” God bless Nepal!
