Adventure Tourism in Nepal
Nepal
– Synonymous with Everest and the Himalaya – is a land of
spectacular beauty and a unique culture in its most diverse
geographical regions. Adventure tourism in Nepal is meant to
provide you an exhilarating experience for life. The endless
scope of adventure tourism in Nepal is largely because of its
diverse topography and climate. It contains an incredible
variety of terrain in a relatively small area, ranging from the
tropical lowlands of the “Terai” at about 300 ft above sea level
to the summit of Mt. Everest at 29,035 ft (8,850 m).
On land and water and in the air, you can enjoy whatsoever form
of adventure in Nepal you want. It is one opportunity for you to
leave all inhibitions behind and just let yourself go.
With eight of the highest peaks in the world in Nepal, the
country has been a playground for mountaineers, many of whom
have achieved outstanding achievements here.
With its rich forest cover, more than 800 species of birds are
found in Nepal hence making it a paradise for birdwatchers.
The country's diverse terrain provides ideal conditions for
varieties from tropical to hill plants and flowers. Some very
rare orchids and certain varieties of rhododendron are found
only in Nepal. During spring most of the high valleys are
blooming with rhododendron, which is also the national flower of
Nepal. During the right seasons most visitors, who come to
explore the natural beauty of the country, are fortunate to have
a glimpse of the spectacular sight of hills covered with
rhododendron flowers. Spring and autumn are the best seasons for
flowers in Nepal.
With its rich culture, picturesque villages, friendly people,
soaring peaks and a varied landscape, Nepal remains the most
attractive trekking destination in the world luring people over
and over again. One can never tire of visiting this Himalayan
country.
The mountainous regions offer umpteen scope for mountaineering,
rock climbing, trekking, mount biking and safaris while the
rushing river from these mountains are just perfect for river
rafting, canoeing and kayaking. The forest regions have their
own distinct place in providing scope for adventure tourism in
Nepal. You can enjoy animal safari, jeep safari, bird watching,
wild camp, wildlife safari and jungle trail in the forest
region. After all this, if you think the list of adventure
sports in Nepal has ended, think again. There is still much left
in form of paragliding, hand gliding, ultra-light mountain
flights, etc.
We, at Himalayan Frontiers Nepal, take you on journeys to the
incredible, the beautiful, the exotic, the healing, the wild,
the enigma that is Nepal.
