TREKKING PERMITS AND NATIONAL PARK FEES

All trekkers require a trekking permit to visit Nepal’s interior regions, which are not connected by highways. Recently the Annapurna, Langtang and Everest regions have been declared " permit free" areas; but National Park or Conservation Area fees are still applicable. We process the trekking permits and national park entrances at immigration offices from Mountain Leaders office in Kathmandu or branch office in Pokhara.
