Quiet Nepal treks like the Arun Valley Trek are harder to organize than popular routes. The Arun Valley runs 12 to 16 days from Tumlingtar to Lukla crossing Salpa Pass at 3,500 m, with 200 trekkers a year versus 40,000 on EBC. Planning needs 4 to 6 weeks lead time, a Makalu Barun National Park permit at USD 30, a Salpa Pass region guide familiar with the route, and USD 200 to USD 400 cash because teahouses do not accept cards. Total cost runs USD 800 to USD 1,200 per person. The payoff is biological richness, deep Salpa Pass culture, and 90 percent fewer crowds than EBC.
