Mountaineering expeditions on their approach marches, but most are use by Nepalese some of the popular trekking for everyday travel and trade. A trekking trip can be of any length one chooses. There are popular short treks around the Kathmandu and Pokhara valley, which only take a day to complete; there are longer treks around Annapurna and Everest region lasting from a week to a month.
