Hey Mike, I stumbled upon your site while looking for pics of New Zealand.... I must say the pictures here took my breath away esp those of the Himalayas. I MUST go there... any idea when is the best time of year to go and how long it would take to up then down. Whatever tips you could give will be most appreciated. cheers Muffy |

Depends which part of the Himalaya you're planning to go to. The part I went to (from Manali to Ladakh) is best in the summer (July-August), but if you go to Nepal, October is probably much better. We took about 10 days one way from Manali/Darcha to Padum, taking our time each day. I'd certainly recommend going with a group - there's absolutely nothing there to support you along the way. But as you say, it's certainly worth the hike :-) |
