Api Base Camp Trek consider wilderness trek and very few people trekked this region due to difficult access. We need to drive by night bus to Auttaria and next night to Latinath the trek trail head. One can fly to Dhangadi and drive to Attariya, instead of first night bus, however second night must drive, there is no option.
The area is inhabitant of Khasa (Chhetriya) Arya community. People speaks local Khas Language that is much similar like Nepali Language. They are follower of Shiva, one of main Hindhu tutelary God, holy Lake Kalidunga is home to it as local believe.
