Why Lukla flights leave from Ramechhap (Manthali) in the main seasons, what the 2 am drive is like, which airlines fly, the 15 kg baggage limit, how weather delays really work, how many spare days to keep, helicopter sharing, and the walk-in alternatives from Salleri, Phaplu and Jiri.
Packing and preparation
A Nepal trekking packing list by season and altitude: porter weight limits, what we lend you, what to rent in Thamel or Lakeside, layering, boots, sleeping bag ratings, water, cash, first aid and what to leave at home.
