About Us

Welcome to Green Valley Nepal Treks

For over 16 years, Green Valley Nepal Treks and Research Hub Pvt. Ltd. has been crafting extraordinary journeys through the majestic Himalayas. What began as a small team of passionate mountain guides has evolved into one of Nepal's most trusted and respected trekking operators, with thousands of successful expeditions and a growing family of happy trekkers from across the globe.

We're not just another trekking company; we are storytellers, cultural ambassadors, and guardians of the mountains. Every trek we organize is infused with local knowledge, authentic experiences, and a deep commitment to the landscapes and communities we traverse.

Our Story: From Passion to Excellence

Green Valley Nepal Treks was born from a simple but powerful vision: to share the hidden beauty of Nepal with travelers seeking genuine adventure, cultural immersion, and natural harmony.

Our founders, experienced mountaineers and cultural enthusiasts from Nepal, recognized that the true magic of the Himalayas lies not just in their towering peaks, but in the trails less traveled, the warm smiles of mountain communities, and the timeless traditions preserved in remote valleys.

From our first guided trek through the Annapurna region to pioneering routes in non-touristy areas like Tsum Valley, Dolpo, and Kanchenjunga, we have remained committed to one principle: quality over quantity. We don't just take you to destinations, we immerse you in experiences that transform how you see the world.

Our Mission: More than Just Trekking

We exist to guide trekkers safely through Nepal's mountains while promoting sustainable tourism, supporting local communities, and sharing authentic Nepalese culture.

We believe tourism should be a force for good: uplifting local people, protecting pristine environments, and inspiring responsible travel for generations to come. Every trek we conduct contributes to:

  • Economic empowerment of mountain communities
  • Environmental conservation through Leave No Trace principles
  • Cultural preservation by supporting local traditions and heritage

  • Using gas/kerosene stoves instead of local wood

We don't just work in the mountains, we live for them. Our guides are mountaineers at heart who want to share the same awe, joy, and connection that inspired us to dedicate our lives to the Himalayas.
