Bathrooms are equipped with hot water facilities and western-style toilets, shared among roommates. We will try our best to provide best possible accommodation facilities available in the location with standard living condition.

The spring season is the best time for the Shey Phoksundo Lake trek. Clear skies, moderate temperatures, and lush green landscapes make it the most ideal time to trek and participate in volunteer programs. The environment is perfect for eco-tourism activities and outdoor exploration.
While summer is warmer, it brings increased rainfall, which may affect trekking conditions. However, the lush vegetation and quieter trails make this season an excellent choice for travelers looking for a less crowded experience in remote Nepal trekking. Eco-tourism and conservation activities are still active during this period.
The fall season is a popular time to trek in Nepal, with cooler, dry weather providing excellent trekking conditions. The Shey Phoksundo trek offers crystal-clear views of the lake and surrounding peaks. It is a peak season for trekking and volunteering in Nepal, making it an exciting time to engage in local activities.
Winter trekking in Shey Phoksundo Lake offers a quiet and serene experience, though it can be cold and challenging, especially at higher altitudes. For those prepared for the cold, this is an excellent time for solitude, reflection, and volunteer activities in the quieter, off-season period.
