Trekking in Nepal

The serenity and grandeur of Nepal attracts nearly half a million visitors every year. This small ancient, land-locked country (147,181 Sq. Kms.) nestled between two giants, India and China, is home to more than 24 million people, 40 ethnic groups, 70 spoken languages, and many religions.

From the north—Nepal's sky high border with Tibet—to the south, where the Terai's jungles buzz just above sea level, Nepal offers the visitor so many different environments to explore, even in a short time. We are the only country to have 7 (UNESCO) World Heritage Sites, many situated within a 20 kilometer radius! After you have experienced ancient Kathmandu, you can take a day trip around the Kathmandu Valley, spend a weekend in the jungle of Chitwan National Park (a World Heritage Site), or trek deep into the Himalayas. Trekking options include: Everest Base Camp, Annapurna Sanctuary, Rara Lake (in Western Nepal's "wild west"), or the seldom-visited Nymba Valley, to name just a few. And because of Nepal's diverse terrain and climate: from the world's deepest gorge (Kali-Gandaki) to the highest point on earth (Mt. Everest), one can explore this magnificent country all year round.
