How long and difficult are the hikes? Are there details about kilometers, elevation gain, and planned time?

Poonhill trek is around 3500 m in altitude. Everyday we gain the altitude of 500-1000 m. It's one of the easiest treks to complete, but it's definitely not the flat trek. Everyday you walk around 6-8 km distance, with breaks in between for lunch.

Do we need a visum for Nepal as travellers from Germany? Do we need a proof of vaccination of Covid or a negative test to enter to Nepal? What happend if we get covid on our journey? Where and when you pick us up at the airport in Nepal?

Mountain flight usually lasts for 50 minutes. You have to be there one hour before the flight.

Our trip was simply unforgettable! The fantastically organized tour exceeded all our expectations. The staff at Swotah Travel were very committed and always available, which gave us a sense of security. We would particularly like to highlight the perfectly organized trekking tour. Our tour guide, Ms. Chak Maya Garbuja, had a great deal of mountain experience and an enormous amount of cultural knowledge, which she shared with us. The interesting background information about the history of the villages, the different ethnic groups and the flora and fauna enriched our experience even more. The guide was very attentive and helpful, which made the experience even better. It was the best trip of our lives and we are sure that we will book another trekking trip with Swotah Travel for more adventures!Show more
