More Facts Less Facts

Saipal base camp trek is extraordinary trek takes you to the foot of Saipal Himal (7031m.), the beautiful yet unclimbed mountain in the far-western region of Nepal. The trail passes through subtropical to alpine forests, steep gorges, grasslands, pastures, lakes, waterfalls, and streams. Unique tradition, culture and lifestyle of local people can interest you as they seem to be cut off from the modern world even today. Unlike the Everest and the Annapurna region, trekking trail to Saipal is not crowded. On some days, you could be the only foreigner on this off-the-beaten trail. The main attraction of the trek is the Saipal peak itself. Saipal, together with Api and Nampa, forms the majestic trio of mountains in the far-western region of Nepal which lags behind other parts of the country in social and economic indicators despite having immense tourism resources. Trek to Saipal Base Camp is difficult, yet extremely rewarding. We welcome you to join us for experience a different Nepal trek with Everest Journeys.
