July/August trek

We have heard conflicting views whether a trek is possible to Base camp during this time. There is an agent taking bookings but other sites say tracks are impossible due to the monsoons.

Have you any thoughts or experience of doing a trek at this time?

Looking forward to hearing from you soon!

July/August trek

Hello

I would not recommend a trek during the monsoon time. Firstly it will be very wet and secondly your visibilty will be seriously hampered. The mist makes visibilty very poor and will slightly ruin you trip. HAve you thought about going to Ladakh in Northern India?? I spend a summer there a few years ago and teh treking is amazing. Plus it is high enough to be out of the monsoon route and the scenery is spectacular. Hope this help.

July/August trek

Hello Jenkins,

Greetings from Nepal

As we are from Nepal,we absolutely don%26#39;t feel nice to avoid your travel interest at our small and Himalayan kingdom but as you should know that July/August is monsoon season in Nepal and for sure you will have rain along the way of trek but still people feel nice to walk on the green hills and mountain.

Similarly, yeah agent takes your booking but they should inform you in advance that you should encounter with rain most of the time and when you head up to 2000m,there can be possible to get snow little instead of rain.

So, more or less we can say you can do trek at this time no problem.

And as an agent please ask here for any further assistance thank you

Don%26#39;t know if you scrapped your trek or not, but we just got back from there yesterday, my family of 7, and we did the Poon Hill trek.. Yes, it rained off an on while we were there, but so what!!! No, we did not see the mountains all the time, but we DID see them and got photos. For us, the trade off was that there were virtually NO tourists on the trail. Our guide told us that during season, the trails are crammed with trekkers like donkeys on a trail (and yes, there were donkey trains on the trail). He said that sometimes you will have to stand aside for 20 minutes to let everyone go by. No thanks. I%26#39;d take the rain over the trekkers any day!!! My 5 kids felt the same. Make sure you get goretex waterproof shoes though, and good socks. We didn%26#39;t even use our raincoats; just umbrellas believe it or not.
