Nepal - September to November or march April
if you’ve not been then Everest bae camp fits a lot in short space . It a bit “ obvious “ but as an intro to the Himalaya on a short ( two weeks is only just enough ) time scale it’s unbeatable and doable . There will be lots of replies to some about altitude / being careful / oh my god if you go for two weeks you will surely die . But plenty of people go on organised treks to “ Ebc “ that take 10 days or so and yes it is quick and yes you sjouke take your time and be careful to do your research on altitude but it is doable . Nepal is also very easy compared to all the other Himalayan / Karakoram. Destinations . Very easy to rock up in lukla ( by plane ) and spend two weeks making your way to ebc and back staying in tea houses with nothing much pre arranged .
India - the next easiest option. Best to contact to contact an agency and get them to set something up if on short time scale . If you have a month ( and I know that’s not what you said it pretty easy to do lots of self organised back pack style treks but two weeks would not leave you much room for the unexpected faf that India is good at throwing at you . Best first destination In India would be lahdak . Lots of short easy to organise treks to do , the marka valley is the trade route but lots of options . A good agency to context is Rimo , who will do as much or as little as you want and are very good. Best months June July august September .
