Accommodation
Tented Accommodation
There are many rural and remote trek destinations which offer an unforgettable journey in the rich Himalayan wilderness, and through traditional and virtually unchanged Nepalese villages and communities. Trekking through these areas will get you away from the more crowded tourist hot-spots, but require a little more preparation and equipment. Our camping trek excursions provide you with the gear and services you need to trek in these regions to enjoy the magnificent surroundings. These journeys are free from noise and over-crowding and offer hygienic and tasteful foods prepared by well trained cooks.
Tea House Accommodation
Some popular destinations can be enjoyed with Tea-house trekking, which is more economical than a camping trek. Tea-house trekking is suitable for individuals or small groups, and offers contact with local people providing insight into Nepalese culture and promotes local employment. For tea-house trekking, Beyond the Limits Treks provides you with guiding services, accommodation, and meals in the lodges which are well supervised by our staff.
