THE BEYOND BIT...TREKKING IN NEPAL

Slowly shedding the shroud of morning mist, the Annapurna range became a companion for our trek through this lovely part of Nepal.

We started a day late as the inclement weather prohibitted any flights from Kathmandu to Pokhara, but we soon made up for lost time. The 42 km "Royal Trek" takes in some amazing countryside and scenery, full of local colour nad interest. Winding its way through rural villages, forest and along ridges, it was a great opportunity to get close to the Nepalese locals.

Our full compliment of staff to include our leader Sadar K.C (Winner of the Wanderlust magazine 2006 guide of the year no less!!) 3 sherpas, a cook, 3 kitchen boys and enough porters to make the full battlion up to 17 in total!
The Gold topped "World Peace" Stupa just outside Pokhara.



Really enjoying this Camping experience!







James having a ride! We were so proud of the children completing this trek without a single grumble! In truth both James and William walked the entire way with the exception of maybe 2 km.

Wallers, found you at last!! Greetings from Cherrington - Lord Killwilly has asked that I let you know that he will be in touch now that I have given him the Wallers On Tour site details. Sounds like you are all having a wonderful, enlightening time. Is there an e mail address I can write to??

All the breast Harris & Janette
