I loved this. It was a big highlight of the summer. Would highly recommend next year's trip if you're looking for something beautiful, fun, challenging and unique.

Stephanie Gundel (Seattle, USA) Annapurna Fastpack 2016

Whoasy.... an incredible adventure in an incredible place with incredible people really that sums it up.... be prepared for a trip of a life time... thank you from Colin and Sandy.... we will be back

Sandy and Colin Suckling Australia Langtang Fast Pack 2017

It's completely different from the Annapurna Circuit! I loved the remoteness of the route!...I felt like we definitely got to experience the back country of Nepal and the HAL summer house reinforces that experience....I absolutely love the format HAL uses for their trips! You guys have been able to blend making a guided trip truly feel like an adventure without it becoming a tour group.....My wife and I have now completed two trips (Annapurna Circuit and Langtang) with HAL and I truly think they have something special when it comes to guiding/leading trips. While you "think you signed up for a guided trip in Nepal," what you've really done is signed up to part of a team for the next 10-14 days. I wouldn't go to the Himalaya's with anyone else, nor do I want to!

Jason Pardue Langtang Lollipop 2018

Seth and Sudeep are amazing leaders and friends. The trips are well organized and expectations set pretty accurately. Definitely the trips to take if you are looking for self supported, with beautiful trails off the beaten path, and want to push yourself. This was our second trip with HAL and we look forward to another!

Heather Pardue Langtang Lollipop 2018

crazy shit. It's done. lifetime experience. it was a great time with great people! #AFP2016

Lukas Rådgiver (Bad Kreuznach, Germany) Annapurna Fastpack 2016

Excellent logistics including being collected on arrival at the airport and dropped off at end of trip. Super fun team and diverse itinerary which included some trails that are not part of the official circuit. Great food, laughs and team dynamic. Challenging course meant greater level of satisfaction on completion of each stage. Highly recommend.

Angela (Ireland/Hong Kong) Annapurna Fastpack 2018

The best trip for your money, hands down! This was a life dream trip of mine and this was exactly how I wanted to do it. Check it out if you've ever felt the pull to explore Nepal!

Trisha Steidl (Seattle, USA) Annapurna Fastpack 2014

The Langtang Fast Pack was a fantastic trip on beautiful trails through Nepal's Langtang region. This was my second trip with Himalayan Adventure Labs and I could not recommend them more highly! I have a million beautiful memories and pictures from each trip, which has only increased my desire to return to Nepal in the future.

Stephanie Gundel Seattle, USA Lantang Fast Pack, 2017

Just an awesome experience!

Emma Lee (Australia) Annapurna Fastpack 2014

I highly recommend doing this!! It's such an amazing experience and the people putting it on make it that much better! The loving culture, food and people make Nepal that much more beautiful! Sign up!! Just do it! You won't regret it!! Promise!

Amy Markovich (USA) Annapurna Fastpack 2015

Do it! You won't regret it for a moment. The trail, the people, the camaraderie are all 1st rate.

Karen Carrington (Shanghai, China) Annapurna Fastpack 2015

If you really want to experience Nepal in its pristine setting while discovering what you’re truly capable of achieving, then you must consider HAL for your Nepalese adventure. Besides adventure, you will be rewarded with great camaraderie, a genuine Nepalese experience and the spectacular views that make this country majestic! A word of caution though: you will want to come back for their other trips.

Pablo Cabrera Seattle, USA Annapurna Fast Pack 2016

Our Langtang Fastback far exceeded my expectations. It was extremely challenging, beautiful and provided the experience to visit an area in Nepal that is working so hard to rebuild. Personally, I have to thank Seth for his willingness to help me reach my goal ... without him I most certainly would not have been able to. Both he and Sudeep are so knowledgeable and patient ... I never worried about my safety. Thank you for providing the adventure of a lifetime!!!
