What it will cost

Photo: near KotoWhen estimating costs for the trek, you need to factor in the following:
  • Trekking permit: NRs 2000
  • Accommodation (averages around NRs 200-300 per night - more for attached bathrooms) and food: around NRs 1000-1200 per person per day
  • Taxi or bus to and from Pokhara to the start/finish of the trek
  • Use of internet
  • Postcards and postage
  • Alcohol and snacks
  • Donations to enter gompas
Budget for around NRs 2000 per person per day.

Note: these costs are based on a teahouse/lodge trek, not camping, and have been updated in early 2012.
