Overview And Highlights

Ganesh Himal Trek is a perfect trek for those who are looking for a bit of adventure and stunning scenery. Ganesh Himal is the highest mountain range in the world that lies completely within Nepal. The trek offers panoramic views of Ganesh, Manaslu, Annapurna, and other peaks.

The trail passes through villages, forests, and meadows, providing plenty of opportunities to observe the local culture and wildlife. Ganesh Himal Trek is also a great way to experience the typical Nepali lifestyle and scenery. The trek begins from Trisuli Bazzar and ends in Dhading Besi.

This trek is located in the central Eastern region of the country which is one of the least traveled and explored regions of Nepal. Although this trek is located in between two popular trekking destinations, Langtang to the east and Manaslu to the west.

The accommodation that you can expect through the trek is a cozy room with two sharing beds, mattresses, blankets, and pillows.

Similarly, talking about the meals that you can expect during the Ganesh Himal trek is the local hygenic food especially dal bhat the Nepali traditional meal. Similarly, on the teahouses, you can refill your energy with the local tea or soup.

Best Season to Trek

Almost every trekking destination is executed during the Spring and Autumn season when the temperature is favorable and the views are crystal clear.

Likewise, during the Ganesh Himal trek as well, it is always better to execute your trek during Spring (April to May) and Autumn fall (October to November).

Also, besides that, some extreme trekkers also do visit Ganesh Himal during winter to witness the snowfall and snow-capped mountains. But, it is tough and hard to trek during the winter and monsoon seasons.

Permits for Ganesh Himal Trek

Ganesh Himal Trek requires a special permit as the trail passes through Annapurna and Manaslu regions. Therefore, if you are a foreigner then, you require a permit to successfully execute your trip toward Ganesh Himal.

Additional Information

Nepal has four climatic seasons Spring:

Spring: March-May

March/April/May months are called the spring season which is the best for holidays in most of the Himalayas of Nepal. The sky and the weather are very clear and sunny in these months and warmer. The weather forecast will be 20 to 25 degrees till the 3,500m during the daytime. And at night time and in the morning will be colder. But above the 4,500m will be -10 to -15 degrees cold in the morning and at night. Some time will be rainfall in these months. This is the best season for blooming the rhododendron flower in the mountain which is our national flower. There will be many different kinds of natural flora and fauna in the mountain which makes this season beautiful and attractive for tourists in mountains. The tourist comes for trekking/peak climbing and expedition during this season. This is one of the perfect seasons to visit Nepal Mountain to see and take the experiences of walking and climbing mountains.

Summer: June – August

We called the monsoon months June/July and August because of the heavy rainfall in Nepal. Mostly July/August and till mid-September. It’s still possible to do the trek in Mid June when isn’t heavy rain yet. During the monsoon time is difficult to do the trek in the mountains and the sky and the weather isn’t visible and difficult to walk during the heavy rain and scare of flooding. Mostly, It’s difficult to do the trek in the Everest region because the flight is not on time. Sometimes, It will take a few days long wait to fly Lukla or long waiting to fly to Kathmandu were lots of chances of missing an international flight. So, During these months, It’s idle to choose dry places for trekking in Nepal, Upper Mustang Trek, and Upper Dolpo Trek. These are the recommended trekking for holidays by Peace Nepal Treks (p Ltd and also we provide our best services for our customers.

Autumn: September – November

Mid-September to Mid December is the best season for mountain holidays in Nepal where ever can choose in the mountain as your timing frame and the budget. We have many different kinds of trekking/peak climbing and Expedition services packages for you. This is one of the most outstanding seasons with a beautiful clear sky and the temperatures will be moderate. These months are the feast and festival time were the biggest Dashain festival/Tihar festival and Chhad festival fall. And also have a long holiday from government and people have time to visit shortly in holidays and to meet friends and relatives around. There is no heavy long rainfall but there is a clear sunny day and warmer on these days. So for it, Nepalese people also visit for short holidays around and the International people come for trekking and peak climbing expeditions for long or short holidays. Most of the popular trekking regions will be full of trekkers and quite busy times. Like, mostly busier trekking regions will be the Annapurna region/Everest region and the Langtang region. But there are several less crowded trekking holiday places in Nepal, such as Manaslu circuit trek, Tsum Valley Trek, Upper Dolpo Trek, Mustang Trek, Naar Phu Trek, etc.

Winter: December – February

December to February are the winter season in Nepal. This season isn’t idle to visit long trekking high altitude trek. This is the season of snowfall in the mountain region above the 4,500m and the temperature will be -30 degrees below which is too frozen the people of hotel lodges also do not stay these months in the higher mountain and they moved to a nearby city or in Kathmandu or in Pokhara. So these months are good to visit a short trekking route for a week or 10 days only around Kathmandu city, Ghorepani poon hill, Nagarkot visit, Chitwan National park, Bardia National park, Pokhara city or staying local village homestay, etc. But the sunrise and sunset will be very visible and attractive these months. So the short best trekking is good to visit in Nepal.

While there are no seasonal constraints on traveling to Nepal, different trekking regions are best visited in different seasons. Once you inquire about any trekking itinerary we’ll email you regarding the best season for that particular trek. Nepal for all seasons.
