Travel Insurance

At Hiking Adventure Treks, we prioritize your safety and well-being during your Himalayan adventure. To ensure a secure and worry-free journey, we require all our valued customers to have comprehensive travel insurance that covers both medical expenses and emergency evacuations. Here's why travel insurance is essential and our recommendations for reliable insurance providers:

Unforeseen Risks: The beauty of the Himalayas comes with inherent risks. While we strive to make your trek memorable, it's crucial to prepare for unforeseen events such as minor health issues, injuries, and altitude sickness.

 

Medical and Evacuation Costs: Travel insurance must cover medical expenses and emergency evacuation costs. We recommend a minimum coverage of USD 100,000 to ensure adequate financial support in case of emergencies.

Helicopter Rescue: In the event of significant accidents or acute mountain sickness (AMS), helicopter rescue may be the only viable option for evacuation. Your insurance should cover the expenses associated with helicopter services and mountain evacuation.
Choosing the Right Insurance:

Coverage for Nepal Trekking: Ensure that your travel insurance specifically covers trekking activities in Nepal. This should include provisions for altitude-related illnesses and evacuation from remote mountain regions.
Helicopter Rescue Coverage:

Verify that your policy explicitly mentions coverage for helicopter rescues, as this is a critical aspect of evacuation in the Himalayas.
