This comes down to ensuring you have a great pair of boots that you have broken in, to clothes that are appropriate to the trip. Our Australian summer is their cooler season so although you will be hiking, you must remember warmer clothes. The higher up you get, it becomes important to rug up because the high altitude brings a cooler temperature. And bring waterproof clothing in case of rain or an unexpected waterfall you want to jump in!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7f202441 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"7f202441\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings='{\"jet_parallax_layout_list\":[]}'>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-66cab2e7 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"66cab2e7\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings='{\"jet_parallax_layout_list\":[]}'>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5a5a5fe5 elementor-widget-tablet__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"5a5a5fe5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"624\" height=\"326\" src=\"https:\/\/challengesabroad.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2026\/05\/group-discussion-smiling-1.webp\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-21633\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/challengesabroad.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2026\/05\/group-discussion-smiling-1.webp 624w, https:\/\/challengesabroad.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2026\/05\/group-discussion-smiling-1-300x157.webp 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 624px) 100vw, 624px\">\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6ed98fb8 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"6ed98fb8\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings='{\"jet_parallax_layout_list\":[]}'>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9651406 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"9651406\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><strong>Day One<\/strong><\/p><p><span style=\"font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit;\">The day before the trek, you will be transferred from our volunteer base in the Kathmandu Valley to Pokhara in the Nepalese countryside.
