Eco - Trek different |

Commitment to the environment
Every Eco Trek trip uses low impact trekking
methods to reduce our impact on the fragile environment near
trekking routes. Eco Trek has been on the cutting edge of Nepal's
environmental awareness movement. Eco Trek helped sponsor and
organized difference activities such as Everest Day, an annual
event in which the people of Nepal celebrate the beauty of the
Himalaya and learn about the present environmental problems
that threatens it. |

Commitment to high land porters
As the abuse of trekking
porters is drawing international attention towards backing up
selected companies, Eco Trek has always been concerned about
High Land Porters' safety and Job Security. While many companies
have keep aside their seasonal employee after they become disable
in some mountain mishap, Eco Trek look after their family, kid's
education and guarantees their fundamental needs.Present environmental
problems that threaten it. |

Eco Trek is a Nepali owned
and operated company that knows the importance giving back to
the mountain communities of Nepal.This is why we have started the
program School and Children Nepal. It is a program designed
to help build schools in the villages of Nepal. So far over thirty
schools have been rebuilt fully or partially Eco Trek also
donates a percentage of all its profits to community projects aimed
at helping those in need. |

Commitment to Safety
All of our treks are led by qualified
guides who have been trained in first aid, basic and advanced
mountaineering skills, environment and various other related
subject matters. We pay extra attention to all health concerns
such as water and food. We are a member of the Keep, Himalayan

Responsible Tourism
Eco Trek strives to organize culturally rewarding and environmentally friendly trekking trips that provide economic and social benefits to the local communities. We therefore buy most of our trekking food supplies locally, promote eating local food and stay at locally run Inns,and camp sites and promote home stays only. Local entrepreneurs are encouraged by us to adopt minimum-impact methods and provide eco-friendly services. We try to minimize the use of campfires by giving proper clothing advice to our clients and by providing adequate clothing gear to our porters and guides.
We trek all the traditional routes when requested but specialize in catering trips to more adventurous travelers who prefer to move off the Beaten path. We have all ready provided thousands of high quality trips to clients from all over the world.
