Ganesh Himal Trek – 15 Days Into Nepal’s Hidden Trails
The Ganesh Himal Trek is a serene and cultural 15-day journey into one of Nepal’s least explored trekking regions.

This off-the-beaten-path adventure is perfect for trekkers who seek untouched beauty, rich Tamang and Gurung cultures, and dramatic Himalayan vistas without commercial trekking traffic.
