Nepal is an ideal location for a life-changing journey and spiritual cleansing. It's also a popular site for residents to engage in cultural and religious exchanges. Moreover, many trekking and hiking trips are widely offered in Nepal's varied locations. Each of these trips is divided into three categories: easy, moderate, and challenging. During the trek, you will encounter some incredible hiking adventures with a high level of difficulty. We're going to talk about Nepal's challenging trekking trips. The time, elevation, geography, and remoteness of the excursions determine the difficulty level of these treks. You may be asking if the trek to Everest Base Camp is the most difficult. However, let us assure you that reaching Mt. Everest's base camp is not a tough trek. However, these incredibly challenging hiking activities can be found across the Himalaya. Let's take a look at some of Nepal's most difficult trekking trails.

1. Amphu Lapcha Trekking - Everest's Most Difficult Trek:

Amphu Lapcha Trekking is one among the experiences to go for if you want a difficult and strenuous trek in the Everest region. This trip explores the craziness of Hinku valley and is named after a difficult mountain pass called Amphu Lapcha. The wilderness you'll pass through on the trip is breathtaking. You'll travel to Lukla and then go up the path to Mera Peak. Past Mera peak is the infamous Amphu Lapcha pass. It is a highly tricky pass that must be traversed with the aid of a rope. Trekking over the pass to the opposite side of the valley to Chhukung valley is like a short climbing adventure. The circumstance is not only a long walking experience at a high altitude, but it is also a difficult one.

2. Everest Three High Passes Trek:

When people think about Nepal, they usually think of Mt. Everest, the country's most famous mountain. The Everest Three High Passes Trek is a three-week trek in Nepal that is not technically difficult but is tremendously physically demanding. Renjo La, Cho La, and Kongma La Passes are the three high passes on this trip that exceed 5,000 meters (16,405 feet). The Everest High Passes trek includes severe ascents and descents, as well as going through high passes and crossing glaciers in certain areas, but you will be rewarded with a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Namche, Renjo Pass, Gokyo Lakes, Gokyo Ri, Chola Pass, Lobuche, Gorakshep, Everest Base Camp, Kalapatthar, Kongma la Pass, Chukkung, Tengboche, and Lukla are all included in this three-pass trek.

3. Annapurna Circuit with Tilicho Lake Trekking:

The Annapurna Circuit along with Tilicho Lake Trekking takes us to the world's highest lake. The Annapurna Circuit paired with Tilicho Lake Trek begins with a drive to Dharapani through the lowland rice fields, steadily climbing height along the Marshyangdi River. It traverses through oak and pine forests until reaching Manang(3597 m.), when it emerges into high-altitude desert land The Tilicho Lake and Annapurna Circuit trek takes you to a lovely community populated by people of all ethnic groups, as well as breathtaking and majestic vistas of the white Himalayas. It is essentially the same as the Annapurna Circuit; however, instead of taking the valley north to Tanki Manang and Yak Kharka, this route goes to the main valley to the west, passes through Khanshar Village (Nepal's Last Village), and treks up to Tilicho Lake, then to Yak Kharka, and finally up to the Thorung La pass at 5,416m.

4. Kanchenjunga Trek:

The Kanchenjunga Circuit trek was a long-time favorite of extreme trekkers, but due to the Maoist insurgency, it lost its allure and tourist demand for almost a decade (during the civil war). Kanchanjunga used to be a well-organized (Camping) and hence expensive trek in Nepal. Many Trekking Agencies' guides and owners are similarly unaware of the Kanchenjunga trek track, despite the fact that it is posted on their website. Kanchanjunga is truly one of Nepal's most magnificent hikes. To trek up Kanchenjunga, a local government-registered guide and at least two persons are required to get trekking permits. Kanchanjunga treks can now be done as tea-house treks, with modest accommodations and limited food options.

5. Classical Difficult Trek to Dhaulagiri Base Camp on the Dhaulagiri Round Trek:

Dhaulagiri Round Trek is a remote area exploration in the region of Mt. Dhaulagiri, and is one of Nepal's most challenging trekking excursions (8,167m). This trekking trip attracts a few number of trekkers each year. As a result, trekking in Dhaulagiri is a kind of solo adventure. To participate in this journey, you must be extremely fit. Because there are less hikers in the area, you can explore it at your leisure. Although teahouse and homestay accommodations are available for the majority of the journey, tent lodgings are also required. The more arduous the trek becomes, the more tough it becomes for the trekkers. You'll appreciate the region's natural beauty. This is a breathtakingly stunning remote trekking adventure.

6. Rolwaling Tashi Lapcha Pass:

Because we will be traversing the Tashi Lapcha Pass (5,750 M) 18865 feet, talking about this trek requires quite a bit of technical information. Rolwaling is a hidden gem located below Mt. Gaurishanker and the Everest area. We discussed the lungs-pumping trek earlier, and here is one of them, where we undertake hard climbing, patience, rock climbing, and an adventure voyage. Rolwaling is a trekking zone with spectacular glacial lakes, isolation, sceneries, Sherpa climbers' homes (rolwaling), monasteries, glaciers, and a different way of life. Rolwaling Tashi Lapcha Pass trek begins in Gonggar village, Dolakha district, and ends in Namche Bazaar after passing via Tashi Lapcha Pass. From there, we'll travel back to Kathmandu.

7. Trek to Makalu Base Camp - A Difficult Trek to Avoid the Crowds:

Makalu Base Camp Trek takes you to the base of Mt. Makalu (8,481m), another secluded place and challenging trekking trip in the Himalaya. Mt. Makalu, the world's fifth highest peak, is a stunning Himalayan mountain peak. Trekking in the Makalu region takes you to one of Nepal's most isolated trekking destinations. Despite being the world's fifth tallest peak, Makalu has a relatively small number of trekkers trekking the trail in the region. However, the beauty of the mountain and the area that you will witness during the journey will astound you. The adventure is made even more stunning by the clean landscape, unspoiled ambience, and breathtaking views of the mountains.

8. Nar Phu Valley Trek:

For those of you who believe you've hiked everything, the Nar Phu Valley trek is great for individuals with the time and appetite to explore into some of the less congested rural places, magnificent regions with ethnically Tibetan inhabitants. In the Annapurna region, Narphu valley trekking is a new hiking track. This trek has only been available to hikers since 2003. It is one of the best places in the highlands to see breathtaking mountains. High peaks and mountains, glaciers, secluded villages, narrow valleys, magnificent woods, amazing rock formations, yaks, gompas, and unique Himalayan cultures are all part of the Nar and Phu trek. The Phu is the most beautiful medieval village where you may learn about and enjoy the authentic life of Bhote inhabitants.

9. Upper Dolpo Trek - A challenging trek across Dolpo's Hidden Valley:

Upper Dolpo Trek is one of Nepal's most famous remote-area treks, as well as one of the most challenging. This journey takes place in the Himalayan Alps west of the Dhaulagiri range. Beautiful cultural villages and unspoiled natural settings add to the region's tranquility. This is a restricted area trekking experience that necessitates a specific permit to participate in. Along the trail, you can explore the magnificent splendor of Phoksundo Lake. Shey Gompa's cultural treasures, as well as the other picturesque settlements along the trail, add to the overall experience. Again, there will be less trekkers in the area, giving you the opportunity to explore the area in peace.

10. Ganja La Pass Trekking:

"Days will be difficult, nights will be even more difficult," our guides used to remark, "but the Ganja La Pass Trek is worthwhile" and "must be done once in a lifetime." Ganja La pass is located in the Langtang region, and the journey begins after a 7-hour drive from Kathmandu in Syabrubesi. We will explore the Langtang Valley, Kyngin Gompa, Chorkari Ri (5,050M), and Helambu Melamchi Bazar on this path. This trip takes you through Tibetan culture, Tamang settlements, and their various ways of life in the Himalayas. We will require technical climbing equipment for the Ganja La pass trek, and trekkers will need to learn basic climbing skills.
