About HimalTrek
Nepal's most trusted trekking platform — connecting responsible adventurers with the world's greatest mountain landscapes since 2019.
Our story
HimalTrek was founded in 2019 by a team of Kathmandu-based trekking professionals and technology experts who saw a gap: trekkers were struggling with fragmented information, complex permit processes, and unreliable safety tools.
We built HimalTrek to be the single platform that handles everything — from the moment you start dreaming about Nepal to the day you return home safely.
Today we've guided 12,400+ trekkers, processed 18,000+ permits, and partnered with 120 TAAN-certified guides across every region of Nepal.
