Safety on a Himalayan trek isn’t one thing — it’s preparation before you leave, and protocol once you’re on the trail. Here’s
exactly what that looks like with Kanchha Outdoors.
We recommend 4–6 weeks of prep before a Himalayan trek: cardio (running, cycling, swimming), stair-climbing or hill repeats, and at least 2–3 practice hikes with a loaded pack
Travel insurance with high-altitude and emergency helicopter evacuation cover is mandatory for all treks above 3,000m

Indian citizens generally do not need a visa to enter Nepal, but valid identification and appropriate travel documents are required. Trekking routes may also require permits such as TIMS and national park or conservation-area permits. We assist with the required trekking permits as part of our arrangements.
