Every year, more than 350,000 tourists visit Nepal. Over 90,000 go trekking in the hills and mountain regions of Nepal. The result of this ever-increasing number of trekkers is the ever-increasing amount of garbage and litter, both seen and unseen. The most often highlighted example of this is the huge amount of waste and litter left behind at the infamous Everest Base Camp. Here you have the opportunity to help reduce the adverse effects of tourism on this beautiful and hospitable country.

Clean Up Treks Every year, hundreds of thousands of us go trekking in the hills and mountains of some of the most beautiful and often remote areas of the world. By participating in clean up treks we aim to discourage tourism from damaging the culture, heritage and environment of the countries we visit. We aim to generate awareness amongst the thousands of tourists who climb and trek around the world and discourage them from leaving a trail of garbage behind them. More information…

Typically there are two areas that attract a significant amount of interest regarding clean up treks, and these are mentioned below. A typical tour itinerary has been included for each to give you a flavour of what we can offer.
