Staying safe

Meet new people in public places first, such as a cafe in Thamel or Lakeside before the trek.

Tell a friend or family member your route and dates. Keep your own copy of permits and insurance.

Never send money to someone you only met in the app. Book guided treks only through the departure page so the guide is verified.

Use block and report on any profile, post or chat. Our team reads every report.

Altitude is serious. Go slow above 3,000 m and turn back if symptoms get worse.
