Trekking
routes and activities are by and large not affected by the ongoing conflict
situation. |
|
Travelling
in groups will make you less vulnerable to theft and assault and will assist
you greatly in the event of an accident. It also helps not to be alone
in the face of Maoist demands for money on the main trekking routes. |

When
planning for a trek you should keep your itinerary flexible. There are strikes
and transport blockades every day in one or the other district. These
activities are a real problem for tourists in the country. |
|
|
Air
travel, to Lukla, Jomosom etc. is fairly reliable and not affected
by these strikes. |
