Khopra Ridge Trek Cost
Khopra Ridge Trek cost is normally $550 - 850 per person. The cost depends on the group size and the service offered. The type of hotel and transportation standard you are seeking determines your package cost.
Typically, food, accommodation, and other essential services are included in the package price. Also, the price may vary as on the season and peak time. With a couple or group, you will get an attractive discount, too.
Accommodation in Khopra Trek
All our packages include accommodation at no cost. This accommodation is included in the set itinerary. While in Kathmandu, we provide a 2-3-star hotel for you. During the trek, you may not find the best and luxurious accommodation, as this is a remote tour.
For the first few days, you will get to stay at a local lodge, which our guides will arrange the best they can. But at a higher altitude, you will stay overnight at the tea houses. They are not much facilitated, and you may have to share a room with other trekking members.
Food on Khopra Trail
Nepal has a wide variety of food, and it is easy to cater to your needs. If you are a vegetarian/vegan, gluten-free, or lactose-free, we are able to work around that if you let us know ahead of time. During your time in the hotel in Kathmandu or Pokhara, your breakfast is included. Lunch and dinner must be covered on your own.
On the trek, breakfast, lunch, and dinner are provided. For teahouse treks, we can order typical Nepali food such as dal bhat, roti, momo, and soup. While camping, we will prepare the meals for you. After our trek, we will have a celebration/pre-departure traditional Nepali meal in Thamel.
Communication and wifi during the Khopra Ridge Trekking
As we reach further in this journey, the network may not support us. You may have to face difficulties in finding a good network for your phone. But there is a good provision for wifi. You can connect with your friends and family via the internet and share your updates.
Only the highest point is away from the Wi-Fi facility. Other than this, you can enjoy smooth and flexible connectivity even in this remote adventure.
Water Accessibility along the Trail
You will get pure drinking water as well as water for other purposes. Our team will carry the required water. Also, the tea houses and lodges will provide water for various purposes.
You just need to carry a small bottle or a hot water bottle for your convenience. Hydrating yourself during every short break is necessary in hiking.
Guide & Porters for the Khopra Trek
A government-licensed guide will lead the trek. All our guides have tremendous experience on the trails and are passionate about the trekking industry. Our guides and porters are dedicated to making your experience of trekking in Nepal a memorable one. If there is any worry during your trek, our guides will address it.
Your safety is our number one priority. For groups of more than six people, there will be two guides. For teahouse treks, there will be one porter for every two trekkers. For camping treks, we will need more porters in order to carry the food, kitchen equipment, tents, etc.
Acclimatization/Fitness/Experience for Khopra Trek
As many of our treks lead us high into the Himalayas, it is necessary to let our bodies get sufficiently used to the altitude. Our treks have acclimatization days built into the itinerary. It is best to take it slow to prevent altitude sickness. The level of fitness necessary for our treks varies depending on the trek.
On average, expect to walk an average of 5-6 hours per day while on the trial. Generally, the treks can be done with an average level of fitness. More important than fitness or experience is one’s personal determination and positive attitude toward finishing and enjoying the trek.

Travel Insurance for this Trek
We strongly recommend having travel insurance before going on a trek. We do our best to take care of you, but something can happen that is out of our control. In case of a medical emergency, leading to a helicopter evacuation, it is best to have insurance.
You are unable to obtain medical insurance in Nepal and must do so in your home country. Be sure that your insurance covers accidents abroad and in high mountains.
