We invite you to trekking in the mountains of Nepal, on an exciting journey with the team of We Are A Travelers! We will climb to a height of 3,400 meters and see the magnificent panorama of the snow ranges of the Himalayas with a height of 8,000. We will take a new route through the forests and meadows of the Dorpatan Reserve. We will end up in places where mass tourism has not yet arrived, the locals are sincerely glad to welcome guests, and the traditions are alive. We touch the culture of the Tibeto-Burmese peoples and feel the power of the spirit of the mountain people.
And our every journey is an expedition, immersion in the culture and collecting material for a large-scale international film project “WE ARE TRAVELERS | LIFE LOVE PEACE »
We gather a team of like-minded people who share our values!
For whom:
- This way is for those who are ready to test themselves in field conditions, to be alone with nature, leaving the city bustle. For those who are ready to give up comfort for the sake of meeting with eternity!
- For travelers who are looking for new routes, where not everyone is able to reach.
- Who wants to see and feel the greatness of the 8 thousandth peaks of the Himalayas
- Who wants to tighten physical shape and strengthen the spirit!
- Who is interested in immersion in the true Nepalese culture (rather than ostentatious-commercial)
- For photographers who are hunting for unique personnel, there are still few trodden places
- Who wants to reboot, to gain clarity of thoughts and brightness of sensations.
- Who is looking for his way or is already on it and is happy to meet like-minded people.
These secluded areas with majestic landscapes were once places of opposition from partisans against the local king (until 2006). Since then, life has returned to its course, and revolutionaries have returned to the concerns of farmers, and the region began to actively develop. 3 years ago, a new trekking route, the “Guerrilla Path” (“Gorilla treck”), was opened here. He is little known to tourists, and those places still keep the spirit of true Nepal.
What A waits Us In The Campaign-Expedition:
Our expedition trip begins in the area of Beni Myagdi, passes through Baglung and Tatopani (Hot Water), a village known for its healing hot springs. This place is part of the famous “Around Annapurna” route. From there we will turn off the crowded route and dive into the wild valleys of Rukum and Rolpa. We will pass through serene villages, steep terrain, and spectacular valleys, through gorges with dense rhododendron forests. Let's go up the mountain Jalyala (3414 m) - the top of our trekking. From there, there is a panoramic view of the Dhaulagiri Range (8167 m).
Let's stop in the traditional village of Lamsung. Here we will interview local people who are willing to share their wisdom and values. In the area of the famous hunting reserve Dorpatan, we plunge into the world of wildlife and meet rare wild animals - blue sheep, tar (mountain goats), barking deer, wild boar, pheasant. In Dorpatan, the Nepalese family will host us. And in the local school, children with great interest listen to our stories about the world.

To the team of guides.
We are not guides. We are guides, specialists in creative professions, travelers inspired by the greatness of the mountains and the beauty of people. And we are glad to take you along the newly opened mountain route, where we will enjoy stunning views of the mountains and the life of an ordinary Nepalese village. And for us, it is important to go to the mountains with like-minded people, to become a solid team and feel each other’s support on the way. But everyone will go through his own inner path, he will hear an inner voice, and clear answers to deep-seated questions will come.
In the mountains, as nowhere else, you understand the value of mutual assistance, gaining a strong spirit, giving up everyday comfort for the sake of meeting eternity.

Past Hikes And Programs:
In February 2019, the team and I went up to a height of 3200 meters. We passed the popular Himalayan track - Poon Hill. And although it was very cloudy at dawn at the highest point, during the descent we already saw the whole amazing panorama of mountain ranges! In the end it was incredibly difficult to say goodbye to the mountains and return to the city.
