Climbing Gears
Climbing in the Himalayas
The Himalayas of Nepal have long been the destination for
mountaineers from around the world. Nepal has 8 of the 10 highest
mountains in all the world including the tallest of them all, Mt.
Everest.
Eco-Trek offers guided climbing trips on many of Nepal's smaller
trekking peaks. Most of the climbs are non-technical but involve a
large amount of glacier travel and physical fitness is the must.
We have experienced guides to introduce you to the fascinating
experience of high altitude mountaineering.
