Sushila Acharya

A JOURNEY OF EMPOWERMENT AND ADVENTURE

Sushila Acharya's journey from the remote district of Jumla in Nepal to becoming a trailblazer in the trekking industry is a story of resilience, empowerment, and adventure. Born in a traditional society where girls were often confined to domestic roles, Sushila dreamed of breaking free and creating meaningful change. Supported by her parents, she pursued education beyond her village, driven by a passion for learning and social work. In 2007, she moved to Pokhara with limited resources but unwavering determination. To fund her education, she became one of Nepal's few female mountain guides, pioneering a path rarely taken by women.

Her trekking career became a catalyst for personal and professional growth. In 2008, she completed rigorous rock and ice climbing training, used her earnings to fund her bachelor's degree, and explored Nepal's breathtaking landscapes while connecting with people from diverse cultures. Inspired by her own struggles and achievements, Sushila founded Women Empowerment Trek (WET) in 2015. Based in Pokhara, WET provides women with opportunities to earn money for higher education, gain professional skills, challenge societal norms, and explore the Himalayas.

Driven by a love for adventure, cultural exchange, and women's economic independence, Sushila believes every mountain climbed is a step toward empowerment. Her journey is a testament to the transformative power of determination and the impact of creating opportunities for others.

Great experience

We had a great experience with Sushila and her team (Asmita and Manila) Originally we planned do the Mardi Himal trek, but due to some injury within our group we decided for a somewhat easier trek (so called Ghandruk trek). Sushila showed great flexibility to adapt the trek to our wishes. What we got was a very nice trek in an incredible environment, where we could enjoy nature and culture. The cooperation and the joy we had with our friends and the guiding team was wonderful and I highly recommend Women's Trek Nepal to choose for your next trekking.

She explained everything and even went to multiple Shops with me to buy stuff I needed for the Trek. She Made Sure I was well prepared and I felt Like Meeting a friend. I could also borrow a sleeping BAG for some Rupees. During Dinner the night before the Trek she also told me about her impressive Story of founding womens Trek Nepal. The Trek itself was amazing. Everything was organized very well. But the best were my Guide Pooja and Porter Raz. I felt Like their little pricipessa during the whole Trek, as they took Care of me very well. Pooja is a beautiful sweet Soul and an experienced female Guide. She never left my Side the whole Trek and Always Made Sure I was Safe and well. In the end I felt Like I went with a friend. We even shared Our room fir the nights. She Guides me safely Up to kyangjin ri 4700m. Raz was Not only a porter, it felt Like He was my second Guide at the Same time. He is very experience as well and is such a caring and kind Person. As He was born in Langtang Valley He knew many ppl there and could Tell a Lot about the surrounding. He was the helping Hand Not only for pooja but also for the guesthouses in the kitchen. He will be a wonderful Guide in the Future for sure. With pooja and raz I have found twoo Friends and Made a memory that will stay in my Heart forever.

We did a two day hike with a stay at a tea house

We had an amazing time with Maya on our trek, she looked after us so well, we stayed in a lovely and comfortable tea house with incredible views and she helped us get up all the steps when we were tired! Felt very supported and able to take as much time as needed to hike and stop for photos or drinks. Felt very special to do this with a women’s trekking company too - would recommend 100%

17-day trek Nagi-Khopra-Mardi

My sister and I went trekking with Sushila and Batuli in April, 2025. We walked for 17 days and went to Poon Hill, Kopra, and Mardi. It was an incredibly beautiful trekking: we walked through flowering rhododendron forests deeply covered in moss, over high grassy plains and rocky paths, and through landscapes of snow and ice. Those paths lead us to view points that left us silenced by the beauty of the Nepalese mountains. When my sister and I planned our trekking in Nepal, we decided to walk with a local guide mostly for safety reasons, and because we were unfamiliar with Nepalese culture and custom. We had experience with walking in the European Alps but had never been on such a long trek, and we had also never been at high altitude before (3000m was the highest we had been). We needed the support of a guide to advice us on the trip and to lead the way. Sushila has done so much more than safely guiding us through the mountains and towards the most breathtaking view points. Months in advance, Sushila created an itinerary based on our wishes. She shared packing lists with us and helped us to prepare for the trip. When we arrived in Pokhara, she helped us to get the final necessary items, making sure we had everything we would need on the way. During our trek, Sushila made sure we did not have to think about anything else than putting one foot in front of the other, for 17 days in a row. She showed us the right path, booked our stays, and adjusted the itinerary when needed. She helped with ordering and serving our food, prevented us from getting altitude sickness by setting a slow walking pace when climbing up, and in general help us with every possible step of the way. We are very grateful for all the support we received and for Sushila’s lovely company, you were the best guide we could have wished for.
