Trip Difficulty Levels

Trekking and climbing in Nepal range from 700 meters to over 8,848.86 meters, with difficulty levels classified from 1 (Easy) to 5 (Technical). Regular exercise is recommended, especially for those with cardiac or respiratory concerns. Choose a trek that suits your abilities and consult trip notes or contact us for detailed guidance. Camps are set at lodges or designated camping spots with daily altitude gains, and trekking duration is measured in walking hours rather than distance. We classify trip levels into five categories based on altitude and walking ease:

1. Easy Grade:
Ideal for all ages and fitness levels, this grade includes treks up to 3,500 meters. These routes are typically 1-2 weeks long, with daily walking of 4-5 hours. Perfect for those new to trekking or looking for a relaxed experience with Jagadamba Holidays.
