Limi Valley Trek - 21 days

Limi Valley Trek - 21 days


Limi Valley is a remote hidden valley in Humla of the Mid-West Northern region of Nepal. The Limi Valley Trek is a lifetime experience in the three isolated villages of Limi bound by rich Tibetan Buddhist culture and practices. The trekking trail to Limi Valley was opened in 2002 and saw only a few tourists around the year due to its inaccessibility.

Limi extends from the Hilsa and Chang La Himalayan passes in Nepal and Tibet. It is tucked away in the Himalayas of the second-largest district, Humla, in Northern Nepal. The valley seems to suck in time, with ancient monasteries, salt trade routes, and caravan trails being used to date. The Limi, Talung, and Nyinba valleys offer an exclusive chance to witness wild yak, blue sheep, musk deer, and even the rare snow leopard.

The 21 days escapade starts with a flight from Kathmandu to Nepalgunj, then Humla- Simikot. Thereon, the trek takes you along the Karnali river valley towards Hilsa by crossing Nara La pass. Then pass rocky and dry terrain to the three villages in Limi, namely Til, Halji, and Jang. The route proceeds to Nyalu Base Camp and Lekh Dinga, finally reaching Simikot for a flight to Nepalgunj then Kathmandu. The trek is considered moderate to challenging as it takes to you the high passes of Nara, Langdogd, and Nyalu, all above 4,500m/14,763ft. It is best visited in May to October to witness holy Mt. Kailash, Mt. Saipal, Lake Mansarovar, and other dramatic views under the clear sky.

Unforgettable Trek

We absolutely loved this trek. We were a bit confused when Naba first introduced this trek, but since we trust him, we didn't say a word. We had problem with the length of the day, but Naba insisted us to stick with the itinerary. He made sure everything was done timely and perfectly. Overall, we have no words to explain about the trek and the company. We have already done 3 treks with Naba before we did this trek. With every new treks, Naba has never failed to surprise us with his professionalism and work ethics. He has best guides, and team in Kathmandu. You can meet them if you wish to when you are in Thamel, ktm.

Memorable adventure

A friend of mine recommended this company to me. I wasn't sure though. The consultant recommended me this trek upon my bizzare request. She had lotta other options as well, but we further proceeded sticking to this itinerary. We agreed and booked the trek. The trek is relatively new treks, other than regular ABC EBC treks. I knew I would be getting completely different experience. As of now, this trek happened to be the best-unique trek for me. Nepal has always surprised me, specially the Limi valley adventure of mine. I am really thankful to the travel consultant, Leena, for this particular suggestion. She was friendly and always helpful. If I have to talk about guide, I have the same word for him like other trekkers have in the reviews. I read alot of reviews that explains the nature of guide and it's true, they are really friendly, and helpful. True words here in the reviews. Thank you TRA again for this opportunity.

Great Great Trek

Had Great Time with Third Rock Adventures. I really enjoyed the trek. I explored the remote places in the northern part of Nepal. Learned many thing about places, people and their lifestyle. I regret on one thing: not bringing my best friend. I savored local nepali food and slept in local teahouses. My guide was super-friendly and expert in the field.

This trek is absolutely new trek in Nepal, so wanted to try, and was worth it.
