Mark Maghe Sankranti, the winter-solstice harvest festival, with a clear-sky winter trek through quiet, snow-dusted Himalayan trails.
Maghe Sankranti marks the end of the coldest month and the sun's northward turn. Families gather for ritual baths and warming festive foods — ghee, sweet potato, yam and til (sesame) laddus.
Mid-January delivers the most stable, crystal-clear skies of the entire year. Lower-altitude treks like Poon Hill and Mardi Himal are superb, with sharp views and beautifully quiet trails.
Days are short and nights are cold, so winter treks are best kept below the high passes — we'll tailor the route to the season.
