The Guerrilla Trek is one of Nepal’s newest and least explored trekking routes, recently opened by the Trekking Agencies’ Association of Nepal. Tucked away in the far western region, this trail offers both adventure and history, taking trekkers through pristine landscapes while telling the story of Nepal’s past.
The route traces the very paths once walked by Maoist guerrillas during the decade-long insurgency, giving the trek its unique name. Starting from Beni in Myagdi, the trail winds its way through Rukum and Rolpa, regions rich in history, culture, and untouched beauty.
One of the highlights is a visit to the Dhorpatan Hunting Reserve – the only hunting reserve in Nepal, open to both national and international hunters. While hunting is controlled, the reserve is also a haven for wildlife enthusiasts, with species such as Himalayan Thar, Blue Sheep, and Ghoral roaming its oak, rhododendron, and pine forests.
The trek’s highest point, Dharapani (3,900m), rewards trekkers with sweeping Himalayan panoramas – from the mighty Dhaulagiri in the east to the remote peaks of Api Saipal in the west.
Beyond nature, the Guerrilla Trek is also a cultural journey. Villages along the trail offer a glimpse into authentic rural life, where traditions, struggles, and the resilience of the Nepalese people are still vividly alive. Walking here is not just about mountains – it’s about connecting with the untold stories of Nepal.

Dhorpatan Hunting Reserve Entry Permit:
Gurilla Trek Entering Dhorpatan Hunting Reserve, which lies between Myagdi and Rukum districts.
Teahouses along the trail provide basic yet comfortable rooms, usually with twin beds, blankets, and a shared bathroom. Hot showers and charging facilities are available at most lodges for a small extra fee.
During the Gurilla Trek, trekkers can enjoy a surprising variety of local and international dishes served in cozy teahouses and lodges along the trail. Meals are freshly prepared, nutritious, and designed to provide the energy needed for long trekking days in the Himalayas.
Typical Meals:
Dal Bhat: The classic Nepali meal of steamed rice, lentil soup, and vegetable curry — healthy, filling, and unlimited in most teahouses.
Noodles and Pasta: Stir-fried or soupy noodles, and pasta with vegetables, egg, or meat.
Fried Rice: A popular dish made with rice, seasonal vegetables, eggs, or meat.
Pancakes & Porridge: Sweet or savory options, perfect for breakfast, made with wheat or buckwheat flour.
Snacks & Beverages:
You’ll find tea, coffee, soft drinks, beer, and occasionally local wines. However, prices increase with altitude due to transportation costs. It’s a good idea to bring energy bars, nuts, or chocolate for quick snacks on the trail.
Water:
Boiled or bottled water is available at teahouses, but it’s strongly recommended to carry water purification tablets or a portable filter to ensure safe drinking water throughout the trek.
Note: We humbly request you don’t drink/eat milky and meat items (hot chocolate, milk coffee, and milk tea) because milk is powder and not boiled.
Like the majority of the treks, the Gurilla Trek offers you accommodation in a Homestay with basic facilities. Every Tea house has a menu, and you can make your own choice. But most of the foods are dominated by the Nepali Dal-Bhat and similar meals. Our guide will suggest you select fresh, hygienic, and trek-suitable food.
Essential Gear for the Gurilla Trek
When preparing for the Gurilla Trek, having the right gear is crucial for comfort, warmth, and safety in the Himalayas. Here’s a complete combined list of must-have items:
Clothing:
Pack warm, layered clothing suitable for changing mountain weather. Include thermal underwear (3 pairs): Choose breathable, moisture-wicking underwear made from merino wool or synthetic fabrics to maintain comfort and hygiene throughout the trek. Trekking Shirts (3): Pack a mix of short and long-sleeved shirts made from lightweight, quick-drying, and moisture-wicking fabrics like merino wool, polyester, or nylon. These materials keep you comfortable and dry during long hikes. (Avoid cotton, as it retains moisture.), a fleece jacket, a down jacket, gloves, socks (3 pairs), trekking boots, a sleeper, hiking pants, and a waterproof jacket and pants to stay protected from cold and wind.
Headwear:
Keep your head and face protected with a warm hat, sun hat, sunglasses, and a scarf or buff to shield against sun, wind, and dust.
