Are you planning for some holiday packages for this Christmas 2015 and Happy New Year 2016, I recommend you to go for trekking in Nepal Himalayas. Well!! this December is waiting you with many discounts and offers that you can grab with great adventure fun walking to Himalayas. While talking about the winter holidays in Nepal, Trekking or Hiking in the Himalayas would be a best option for you. If you consult with the trekking experts or trekking agencies in Nepal about the winter trekking, they would say "NO" but if you consider trekking during the winter season then you should pack more warmer cloths and trek on short and easy trekking trails.
Most of the popular mountain peaks lies in Northern Nepal and during the winter season, the climate would be unfavorable for trekking to these regions due to chill cold weather and heavy snowfalls. During the winter season, most of the busy/popular trekking trail remains empty receiving very less number of trekkers. Most of the tea-houses remain closed and the accommodation is found to be very scarce in numbers.
Winter seasons fall between the two trekking peak season Autumn and Spring with the cold weather, foggy in the green lush valley, heavy snow falls in the Himalayas and less sunshine. The nights during this season is very cold with the cold winds blowing on. During the winter season, two main festivals of western people, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year falls so that Nepal receives less tourist than other seasons. During the festival time, tourist want to go their home to celebrate the festival with their friends and families but there are some people who want to explore the panoramic Himalayas even not caring about the winter. The trekking agencies, hoteliers and restaurant in Thamel, Kathmandu will be offering with the special discounts, offers and packages that you will not get in other seasons.
