Who this is for
Far-east Nepal: north and/or south base approaches. Typically fifteen to twenty days.
Kanchenjunga is a long, remote tea-house and camping mix in Nepal’s far east. We arrange permits, flights or overland from the east, and a paced approach to the north and/or south viewpoints. Typical length is fifteen to twenty days; we hold eighteen. This is not a Pokhara day trip — logistics are part of the quote.

Itinerary

East Nepal arrival
Flight or overland into the trailhead region.
02

Village nights, rising altitude.

North and/or south viewpoints as the itinerary holds.
04

Descend and reconnect to flights or road.
Difficulty and altitude
Kanchenjunga Trek is a Challenging walk of 18 days, with a high point around 5143 m. We pace for acclimatisation, not a brochure summit morning.
Best time to go
Typical season: March–May & September–November. October–November and March–April are the classic Himalayan windows. We close or reroute when cloud and rain make the view a fiction.
Permits and what is included
Annapurna routes include ACAP and usually TIMS, processed in Pokhara. Restricted valleys (Mustang, Manaslu, Tsum, Nar Phu) add a RAP filed through immigration. The quote lists permit days; there is no surprise at the checkpoint.

How the trip starts from Pokhara
You sleep in Pokhara the night before a jeep or tourist bus. We confirm the trailhead, tea-house nights, and who meets you. No guest account — a manager replies on WhatsApp, WeChat, Viber or email.
The path
Questions before you book
Questions before you book
Yes on the major Nepal trails. We walk with a licensed local guide; the booking is with a government-registered Pokhara agency.
