Here is a list of the best treks in Nepal that can be on your bucket list for 2024.
Base Camp Trek in Nepal for 2024
Everest base camp (5364m)
Base Camp means the bottom of the high mountains, so reaching the bottom of the immense Himalayas in Nepal is considered the Base Camp Trek. There are several different Base Camp hiking destinations in Nepal, but some of them could be the best in 2023. So, what popular Base Camp Trekking packages can you do in Nepal in 2024? Let's check them out here:
Everest Base Camp Trek 2024
Everest Base Camp, also known as EBC or Mt.Everest Base Camp, is a matchless Trek for most trekkers who plan to go to the Nepalese Himalayas. Hundreds of adventure trekkers visit this beautiful Trek every day during the high hiking season in Nepal so that it can be one of the best Base Camp Treks in Nepal for you in 2024.
The EBC Trek is a 12-day mountain hike to the high Himalayan lands, starting from Kathmandu and ending in the same place. It takes eight days to stop at the foot of Everest after you depart from Kathmandu, including two rest days on the way up to Namche Bazaar and Dingboche for the altitude practice. Two Acclimatization rest days are mandatory before you reach 5000m of elevation above sea level to avoid altitude sickness.
If you do not have enough time for a regular Mt.Everest Base Camp Trek or dislike using the same trail back to Lukla, you have a shorter package for the EBc tour. A 9-day Trek return by helicopter can be one of the best options for the Everest trip in 2024.
Spring is the first high Trekking season for Everest Base Camp in 2024. Some people have started booking earlier for this trip, so you may reserve your seat as soon as possible to organize it without any trouble.
Annapurna Base Camp Trek, 2024
Annapurna Base Camp, also known as Annapurna Sanctuary or ABC Trek, is a famous and beautiful trekking destination that takes you to the high mountain base. You can see many trekkers daily on this trail during the high trekking falls. There are numerous hikers all around the year on this trekking route. It is an easier Base Camp Trek compared to the Everest one, so if you are a bit worried about altitude, you can do it in 2023. It can even be a practice Trek for the EBC and other adventurous routes.
The Annapurna Base Camp Trek in 2024 can be the best natural and cultural experience in Nepal for you. In the first few days of the walk, there are many big trees of the Nepali national flower, the rhododendron. You can see nicely bloomed flowers in spring with stunning views of the high mountains of Dhaulagiri and the Annapurna massif.
The ABC Trek can be done with different itineraries according to your time and interest in covering the region. A 10-day Annapurna Sanctuary or a 6-day short ABC Trek is the most popular route for the Annapurna Base Camp 2024 trek, so you can choose either. The 10-day itinerary goes through the Poon Hill circuit route, although the shorter one goes from Jhinu and returns the same way.
Langtang Gosaikunda Trek 2024
The Langtang Gosaikunda Trek has a high pass but not a very high elevation. The high pass is called Lauribin La Pass (4610m), which is lower than the height of Everest Base Camp. The Langtang-Gosaikunda Trail covers two different trekking packages: the Langtang Valley and Gosaikunda Lake Treks.
Langtang Gosaikunda Trekking takes advantage of the region's natural, cultural, and religious beauties. Tserko Ri, Kyanjin Ri, Lirung base camp, Langsisa Kharka, the view from Lauribinayak, Gosaikunda lakes, and other natural resources are the major highlights of the Langtang Gosaikunda Lauribina Pass Trek.
It is a quiet trekking trail with fewer trekkers compared to the other two base camps listed above, so if you are looking for a beautiful trekking destination in Nepal with less traffic in 2024, you can choose this Trek. You can see different tribes of people staying during this Trek. The people on the Langtang Valley side look more Tibetan, but on the Gosaikunda side are Chinese- or Mongolian-looking Tamang people.
