How to join a trek in four steps
Find a trip
Open the trips list and filter by region, start point (for example Pokhara) and month. Visitors see the start month only; members see the exact dates.
Send a request
Ask to join and add a short note about your pace and experience. Sign up is free and takes a minute.
The host decides
The host sees your experience and trust signals before accepting anyone. You can ask questions in the private chat first.
Share contacts when both agree
After you are accepted, share contact details per person or per group, one channel at a time (for example WhatsApp only). You can revoke a share at any time.
No trip on your dates yet? Post your trek and month in our Facebook group partner board. Open the Facebook group
What stays private
Contact details stay hidden until both trekkers agree.
No money changes hands on the site: you pay guides and agencies directly. Never send money to other members. You can report or block in one tap.
Agents on buddy boards? Here is how this differs
FindTrekkingPartner is not a trekking agency: it does not sell treks, employ guides or handle money.
We do not take payments, so there is nothing to pay a member for, and contact details are shared only when both trekkers agree. Compare the options: Trekking partner apps, groups and agencies compared
Questions about joining
Who sees my contact details?
Nobody, until you share them. Contact details are shared only when both trekkers agree.
Can I join a trip that starts from Pokhara on a specific date?
Yes. Open the trips list, choose Pokhara as the start point and your month or dates, or post your own date; others with matching dates can ask to join and you choose who comes.
Is FindTrekkingPartner the agency running the trek?
No. It does not sell treks, employ guides or handle money. Book a licensed guide through a registered agency yourselves.
