About this host

Chuda runs a small trekking company in Kathmandu together with his wife, Maaike, and a team of guides, porters and drivers. He grew up in a Himalayan village in the Timal district and started out as a porter and assistant cook before working his way up to trekking guide and trip leader.

The company's trips focus on multi-day treks away from the busiest trails: routes like Pikey Peak, Mohare Hill, Khopra Ridge and the Tamang Heritage Trail, which combine mountain views of the Everest, Annapurna and Langtang ranges with time in villages and less-visited communities. Several listings are built around specific ethnic regions, including one in the area Chuda and many of his guides and porters come from.

Chuda plans and arranges the itineraries and often joins as guide himself in the low season, with family treks as his particular favorite. For each trip he first asks travelers about their interests, pace and accommodation preferences before putting a program together, and his team can also arrange porters, accommodation and transport around the trek itself. Guiding in English and German is available.

He started the company to create steady work for family, friends and mountain communities, and the business is run with an eye toward sustainable, community-based tourism.
