Trekking Info

Stay Safe

  • Altitude Sickness: The main and common risk while trekking above about 2500m is Altitude sickness. Altitude sickness is caused by acute exposure to low partial pressure of oxygen at high altitude. The available amount of oxygen to sustain mental and physical alertness decreases with altitude. Available oxygen drops as the air density itself, the number of molecules (of both oxygen and nitrogen) per given volume, drops as altitude increases. So don’t ignore, if you have any symptoms then descending to a lower altitude is the only option.
  • Water: Have some means to purify water, iodine or a fine ceramic filter are the best options. The streams should be considered polluted and whilst bottled water is often available, the disposal of plastic bottles is a problem.

Electricity in Nepal

Nepal is a developing country, Outside of major cities area electricity on trekking can be scares. You should have to pay 100-800 NRs per hour to charge goods on many lodges and also many tea-house treks, including in Annapurna base camp trek, Everest Base camp trek and many others treks also. Chargers often won't work on low power solar systems you find right up in the mountains so u can buy alternative bayonet light to electricity power plug converter, which will only works in low voltage is highlow. The standard Nepalese electrical outlet is a three-pronged triangle so bring three-pronged triangle chargers.

  EBC trek Everest Base Camp has always been a dream for me. So, I and my friend went to Nepal on April 2018. Thanks to Actual Adventure team for making my dream come true. I also want to thank my friend Jim for suggesting this company. We received a hearty welcome by director of the company himself at airport and assist us further so there wasn’t anything to worry about. The services were a way more than that I had expected. Mr. Kedar managed all the permits, tickets and ... See more all necessary documents. The company provided well experienced and English speaking guide Pasang who helped us in every way. A good company brings out the best trip, thanks to our guide Pasang for providing a great travel experience. As a female traveler I found the company more secure in terms of services and people. I will surely choose this company for my next adventure in Nepal. Kudos! to entire team of Actual Adventure.  Hongkong See less...
