Olga (www.yolga.nl) is a passionate Yoga teacher, a retreat leader and an enthusiastic active person, who loves all kinds of outdoor activities – walking, hiking, trekking, running, biking, having fun.

She is one of these people who were lucky to find their path after being torn between working as a lawyer, family life and her personal interests, which were impossible to handle all together without stress. At first yoga helped her face the stress but very soon it became her passion and true devotion.

Olga is now a certified yoga teacher based in Amsterdam, experienced in Hatha, Vinyasa Flow and Ashtanga yoga. She introduces to the practitioners asana and postures with an aim to develop an awareness of the body, the mind and the breath in a balanced and motivational way. 

She has been running Yoga@Hiking events in Europe for years and she would be glad to offer pre- and post-hiking and trekking classes for all Nepal explorers.

L’esperienza fatta in nepal è stata per noi un momento eccezionale che ricorderemo a lungo, visitare un paese così complesso ed affascinante con una guida locale ti consente di capire davvero come vive la gente del luogo. Sahadev inoltre è in grado di essere un’ottima guida dal punto di vista storico ed artistico e la conoscenza dell’italiano lo aiuta a poter essere capito anche da chi non adora l’inglese. Il viaggio è organizzato con cura ma è comunque adattabile a qualsiasi evenienza sopraggiunga, gli alberghi in cui si sosta sono sempre belli e ben tenuti senza sfociare nel lusso (gli hotel di lusso nei paesi poveri a mio parere risultano parecchio pacchiani ed a mio parere irrispettosi). I trekking sono adatti anche al principiante e si addentrano in zone montuose affascinanti e ricche di vegetazione arrivando fino a punti panoramici quali Poonhill da cui si può godere di una vista mozzafiato su alcuni dei giganti delle catena himalayana tra cui il Dhaulaghiri e l’Annapurna. In conclusione è stata un’esperienza fantastica che ci ha consentito di visitare fino in fondo ed in modo consapevole un paese fantastico come il Nepal e molto del merito di tutto ciò va dato proprio a Sahadev. La consigliamo a tutti.

La famiglia Lungo

Namaste Sahadev!

Voglio ancora ringraziarti per il tuo aiuto e i tuoi consigli che hanno reso il mio viaggio in Nepal (Ottobre 2013) un’esperienza indimenticabile. Hai dimostrato di essere una guida preparata nel trekking a Poon Hill e un piacevole compagno di viaggio.Le tue spiegazioni e i tuoi racconti sulla storia e la cultura nepalese sono stati preziosi per avvicinarmi a comprendere questo straordinario Paese.

Posso quindi che raccomandare a chi volesse visitare il Nepal e le sue montagne di rivolgersi a Sahadev ( Himalaya Travel Adventures Company ), per l’organizzazione, la preparazione e la disponibilità nel venire incontro alle vostre richieste ed esigenze.

A presto!

In oktober/november 2011 hebben wij de vijfdaagse Poon Hill trek gedaan met Sahadev Rana Magar.

Onze eerste ontmoeting met hem was in ons hotel in Kathmandu. Vervolgens heeft hij alles voor ons geregeld: vervoer, permits en overnachtingen.

Tijdens de prachtige trekking wist hij veel te vertellen over alles wat we tegen kwamen. Het tempo werd door ons bepaald. Eten en drinken regelde hij voor ons.

We voelden ons helemaal in de watten gelegd, voor zover dat kan tijdens zo’n inspanning. Door het prachtige landschap en de zorgzame begeleiding van Sahadev is het een onvergetelijke ervaring voor ons geworden.

Herma Klompsma, Dalen.

Big hug,

In November 2018 my boyfriend and I travelled to Nepal for our holiday. Apart from the many temples and cultural aspects we intended to see, we made arrangements to do the Poon Hill trekking in order to see Nepal’s beautiful nature and the Himalaya’s. Some family friends had done the same trek before a couple of years ago, with Sahadev as their guide, and through them we arranged for him to guide us as well during our trek.

Sahadev met us at our hotel in Pokhara and together with his younger brother, Rabin, we departed to Nayapul, from where the trek would start. We immediately connected with Sahadev, especially since he, like us, had also studied archaeology. He has a lot of knowledge about the nature and culture of Nepal and it was a pleasure discussing these things with him.

The first day was quite hard for us (being from the Netherlands indeed, we don’t have mountains), but Sahadev pulled us through. He adjusted his walking pace to ours and made sure we took breaks at the right time. He also arranged all permits and also the overnight stays at lodges, where we would play card games with Sahadev and Rabin in the evenings.

Every day of the trek we would walk between 4 and 6 hours, which was doable for us (especially since we are not experienced hikers). During the day the temperature was really nice, we would walk in short-sleeved shirts, but in the evening the temperature would drop which left us in our thermo-clothes during dinner at the lodges.

The first two days contain a lot of climbing, which was rather exhausting, but the views made it all worth it. The third day we would go from Ghorepani to Poon Hill, to see the sun rise over the Annapurna mountain range. We were so lucky to have a clear sky in the morning! Later in the day mist came up, and robbed us from any other view from the mountains. The fourth consisted of a slow descend and we crossed some very long (and high) bridges. In the evening we visited the hot springs of Jhinu Danda (such a nice experience considering we couldn’t get a truly warm shower at the lodges we stayed in). The fifth day was the last day, and we had to say goodbye to the Annapurna Conservation Area. We had mixed feelings: we were sad to leave the beautiful nature of the area, but also we were really victorious and glad that we made it to the end!

We are convinced that we couldn’t have a better experience for the Poon Hill trekking. We enjoyed the trekking and have fond memories of it, but most of all we will remember the good times with Sahadev and his brother. We came to Nepal as strangers, and return as friends!
