We all are familiar with the word “Camping.” The first thing we remember about camping is an outdoor night away from busy city life. More precisely, camping is an outdoor recreational activity involving an overnight stay with nature in a tent. Camping involves daytime activities like hiking, canoeing, climbing, hunting, and fishing. Similarly, night activities include singing, dancing, eating, storytelling around the bonfire, and many more. In Nepal, mountain treks are the most popular holiday packages one can plan if they are visiting Nepal first time. However, most trekking packages lead you through common yet crowded routes.
