Saily sells Nepal plans from $9.99 for 1 GB. Data is expensive here, so a 3 GB plan ($29.99) used mostly for maps and messages suits most trekkers.
The catch: Nepal data costs far more than most destinations, and coverage on remote trekking routes is limited for every provider.
In Kathmandu and Pokhara you’ll want data for maps, messages and bookings, and on a trek a little data keeps family updated. A Nepal eSIM saves you finding a SIM shop after a long flight.
