During the winter season, all lodges prioritize the comfort of their guests by providing hot chimney stoves in the dining halls for heating purposes. These stoves are fueled by wood, and as we ascend to higher altitudes, yak dung is often used as an alternative fuel source. Typically, the lodges start lighting the chimney stoves around 5 p.m., creating a warm and cozy atmosphere for trekkers to relax and enjoy their meals. However, it's important to note that if you require the chimney to be lit earlier than the usual time, there may be additional charges. While the dining hall is heated, the individual rooms do not have a heating system. To keep warm during the night, guests are advised to rely on hot water bottles that are filled by our staff. By utilizing these heating arrangements, trekkers can stay comfortable and cozy despite the cold temperatures of the winter season.
