Celebrating the Festival of Lights in the foothills of the Himalayas.
Join Steph and Sary on this spectacular 10 night/11 day yoga and walking adventure in Nepal. Timed to coincide with Tihar, Nepal’s Festival of Lights, there is simply no greater time to experience Nepal’s magic. This awe-inspiring journey offers a rare opportunity to unplug from the world and reconnect with your inner self. Each day will provide sweeping views of the Himalayas that inspire a sense of peace and wonder and offer an invitation to slow down, breathe deeply, and listen to the quiet within.
Enjoy daily yoga and meditation classes, connect with nature, discover new places, cultures and food, all while finding enriching connections with like-minded people. This adventure is perfect for those looking to step back from modern life and create lasting memories in breathtaking natural surrounds.

our time together
Our adventure begins in bustling Kathmandu as we take a guided tour of Nepal’s capital city. We’ll visit Buddhist and Hindu temples, and get a feel for the rhythm of the city at the historic Asan Bazaar. From Kathmandu we travel to the lakeside city of Pokhara, the gateway to the Annapurna region.
After a night here, we’ll embark on our teahouse walk, spending five days walking through the foothills of the Himalayas staying at authentic Nepali teahouses along the way.
As we walk from teahouse to teahouse, we’ll watch as the festival of Tihar unfolds, gifting us the opportunity to witness daily life transformed by celebration. This luminous festival gives us the chance to watch as the mountain villages come alive with colourful rangoli patterns and twinkling oil lamps, welcoming the festival’s spirit of joy and abundance. We’ll end our walk returning to the comfort of Pokhara, and enjoying a well earned rest, then flying back to celebrate our final night together in Kathmandu.
accommodation
We have chosen smaller, locally owned properties to ensure an authentic cultural experience and to support Nepali business owners. Whilst staying in Kathmandu and Pokhara, guests will enjoy private rooms with ensuites.
Whilst on our walk, we will be staying in locally owned, traditional teahouses. The teahouses will be rustically comfortable with shared facilities. As we will be travelling during peak season, our teahouse accommodation will be twin share and may be three to a room at times.
guides
Over the course of our adventure we’ll be guided by the amazing team from Three Sisters Adventure Trekking, a women owned business dedicated to the empowerment and independence of Nepali women through education and gainful employment opportunities.
They are committed to providing awe-inspiring experiences that showcase Nepal’s natural beauty and celebrate its rich cultural heritage. For our adventure, they have chosen gentle walks suitable for all levels of fitness.
