The Maiti Trek

28/09/2015

Through our partnership with BluSheep Trekking in Nepal, we know how grateful the Nepalese are for the support they've received since the devastating earthquake in April this year. We’ve created a special local hiking program to The Grampians in Victoria that will allow us to make a difference through adventure by raising much needed funds for Nepal. We'd love for you to join us so if you're interested full details are on our website - http://encorejourneys.com.au/blusheep-tours/

Amazing work being done by the Yeti Foundation to support those affected by the earthquakes in Nepal. Our thoughts and prayers are definitely with them.

The devastating earthquake of 7.8 Richter scale in Nepal has killed thousands of people. The death toll numbers are increasing every day, and many thousands people are deprived of food, shelter, and water. We, through Yeti Foundation (http://yetifoundation.org/) are doing our best to support the lives of people with immediate relief plan and long term support!

On the occasion of Buddha Jayanti, the whole team lit the candles and prayed for Nepal and for all those who have lost their lives in this tragic earthquake

Our amazing 2014 Maiti Trek to Annapurna Base Camp has been captured in print by Kodila in the truly inspiring Get Lost Magazine.

Full details of our 2015 and 2016 treks launching soon on http://encorejourneys.com.au/blusheep-tours/ For those not near a newsagency to grab a copy of the magazine, you can view it online by downloading the Get Lost Magazine app - https://itunes.apple.com/au/app/get-lost-travel-magazine/id602797411?mt=8

Nothing beats being there yourself but we think this inspiring video of our 2014 trek to Annapurna Base Camp by Steve Baker gives you an insight into the amazing experience that is the Maiti Trek!

The history and culture of Nepal is just as fascinating as the nature and scenery. Thanks to Steve Baker for another incredible shot enroute during the 2014 Maiti Trek.

We love a good group shot! Here are our 2014 Maiti Trekkers at Annapurna Base Camp when they woke up at 5:30am to watch the sunrise over the mountain peaks. Incredible.....and cold!! Photos courtesy of Steve Baker

Some gorgeous images of our trekkers arriving in Pokhara taken by Baker & Summerhayes ! Congrats guys!

Our 2014 Maiti Trekkers have hit Nepal and are out and about experiencing all that Kathmandu offers before they embark on their trek to Annapurna Base Camp!

19/09/2014

We can't wait to hear the stories from our 2014 Maiti Trekkers! 7 days to go!

Traveling- it leaves you speechless, then turns you into a storyteller :) Happy and have a nice !

12/09/2014

Can it really be only 14 days to go until our amazing trekkers depart Kathmandu on the 2014 Maiti Trek? Pre-Departure Packs are on their way!

20/08/2014

We've showcased some of the amazing sights you'll see on the Maiti Trek but just as important are the people that you'll meet! And top of our list is Karma, our Summiter Guide. Karma's trekking experience spans over 20 years and one of the few people who can say that they have summited Mr Everest multiple times!

If the laid back beaches of Thailand aren't what you're looking for after completing the Maiti Trek, perhaps the melting pot of Singapore is more your style? Amazing dining and shopping make the 'Lion City' a great post trek option! To make the most of your time away, contact the Encore Journeys Concierge Team on [email protected]

Another extension on offer after the Maiti Trek is to look at a stopover in Thailand on the way home from Nepal. You could hit Bangkok for a spot of shopping or alternatively you could head straight to some of the most beautiful beaches in the world, which you can just kick back and relax. Or combine the two for the best of both worlds!

We never really want holidays to end, do we? That's why we've created some amazing experiences for you to choose from to extend your time away after the Maiti Trek! Indulging yourself with a few days of luxuriating spa treatments at a wellness retreat in Dhulikhel near Kathmandu sounds like the perfect way to finish your trip to Nepal!

We love the friendships that are formed through sharing the amazing experience of trekking in Nepal. It usually makes for a great Farewell Dinner with plenty of stories and memories to share before everyone heads home. We can't wait to see this in action at our Farewell Dinner at Le Sherpa in Kathmandu on the final night of our 2014 Maiti Trek!

Who says you can't combine a little bit of luxury with adventure? Looking at the Temple Tree Resort & Spa that will be our home in Pokhara, we think we'll manage just fine!

Another gorgeous sight from Nepal - boats on Phewa Lake at twilight in Pokhara (which you can experience for yourself on Day 10 of the Maiti Trek!)

23/07/2014

We think this video showing some of the highlights of the inaugural 2013 Maiti Trek gives the perfect introduction to what BluSheep and the Maiti Trek are all about. Pure inspiration! (And a big thankyou to some of our "stars in the making" for being part of this video!)
