What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device, computer, tablet, or mobile phone, when you visit a website. They allow websites to remember your preferences, analyze traffic patterns, and deliver a more personalized experience on return visits. Cookies do not contain viruses and cannot access other files on your device.
Types of Cookies We Use
Our website uses 4 categories of cookies:
- Essential Cookies: These cookies are required for the website to function. They enable page navigation, form submissions, and secure booking inquiries. The website cannot operate correctly without them. No consent is required for essential cookies.
- Analytics Cookies: These cookies collect anonymous data about how visitors use our website, which pages attract the most interest, how long visitors stay, and which trekking content performs best. We use this data to improve content accuracy and booking flow. All analytics data is aggregated and non-identifiable.
- Preference Cookies: These cookies remember your selected settings, language preference, currency display, and previously viewed trek packages, so you receive a consistent experience on return visits without re-entering preferences each time.

- Session Cookies: Deleted automatically when you close your browser. Used for form submissions and booking inquiries.
- Persistent Cookies: Remain on your device for a defined period (7 days to 2 years depending on the cookie type) until they expire or you delete them manually.
How to Control Cookies
You control cookies through 3 methods:
- Browser Settings: Most browsers allow you to view, block, or delete cookies through the privacy or settings menu. Blocking essential cookies affects website functionality.
- Cookie Consent Banner: On your first visit, our cookie banner lets you accept all, reject non-essential, or customize your cookie preferences by category.
