    Best place to buy gears and equipment for your trekking. 100% genuine and prices are fixed. He will never try to cheat you. I recommend it. He will also guide you to buy stuffs. They also have jacket and sleeping bag rentals.

    Definitely come here. I went to another store before this but wish I had come here first. The guy helped me find proper gear which looked better quality than other shops and he told me I didn’t need a bunch of the stuff I was asking for for my particular trek.

    Rented sleeping bags here (-10C) for our Everest Base Camp and Annapurna Circuit treks. I was very happy with the quality and cleaning of our bags. 120npr per day seemed like a great value too. They are very organized, and kept our deposit for us for 20+ days while we trekked and happily returned it to us when we came back. I would not hesitate to rent here again. We also got last minute provisions like warm socks, sunscreen, lip protection, all at fair & no haggle prices. Highly recommend this trustworthy shop.

    The staff is really helpful and honest about what you will need and what you will not need for your trek. I got here my winter jacket for EBC and it was amazing quality, super warm at a great price. They make them themselves. They also rent sleeping bags and jackets. I’m super happy to have found this little place.

    We had such a good experience in here today! The two Nepali guys working there were so helpful in telling us what we really need & not in any way pushy (which we found in a lot of other shops & is such a turn off). Thank you for all your help & advice! We would defo recommend this place! We are all set for our trek now!!

    Hired -25c Nepali Alpine own brand sleeping bag and down jacket for island peak. 200rs/day for bag 100rs/day for jacket. Super well priced. Slightly heavy but ultimately similar weight to western alternatives - just a bit more bulky. Both were great. Weather on island peak was reasonably warm (down to sub 0 at island peak high camp) but I was warm with these for whole of island peak. Also got down mitts for 40usd which are bulky but very warm if you're not moving at a cold spot. UK down mitt alternatives would be c.£120. Would reccomend!

    The lady who ones it is like an open Bible when it comes to knowledge about gear, clothing and fabric. Also the prices are set, no endless bargaining. They don't try to sell you anything extra, it is one of those special places where they tell you exactly what is it that you need.

    Rented a sleeping bag and down jacket. Honest and friendly staff were able to offer good advice on what I needed for my base camp trek. Highly recommended!!

    Shame about our experience here as the reviews were really good and we were looking forward to asking for trekking advice and if we can rent some gear. Miserable man behind the counter said "nothing to rent, only you buy" without even looking up at us. We went elsewhere.

    I have just rented a down jacket and sleeping bag for a very good price. Shona also asked me if I had everything that is going to be needed for the 3 passes trek and advised me what I needed and what I did not need to take. Very reassuring.
