Accommodation
The accommodations during Thorong Peak Climbing are hotels, lodges commonly known as tea houses. Most of the rooms are on a twin sharing basis where you'll get a mattress, pillow, sheets, and blankets and they even provide extra blankets upon request. Teahouses in this region are well managed and a few of them even provide western facilities like hot showers and flush toilets. In high-altitude, there won't be any teahouses, so we'll set a camp/tent for you to spend overnight. During your stay in Kathmandu, you'll get a luxurious accommodation service.

Most of the teahouses are run by local people that provide you good bed, breakfast, lunch and dinner facility with warm hospitality. The teahouses provide a variety of on-site prepared hot meals. You'll have a food option of typical Nepali, Tibetan, Nepalese, Chinese and even Indian and Italian dishes on the tea houses. In camping trek, we'll provide excellent cooks to prepare hot and delicious foods for you. Our experienced cook will prepare both western and eastern dishes for you.
