Adventures in Nepal

There are few more enchanting areas of the world than the Himalayas - and a Nepal trekking holiday allows travellers to enjoy an unforgettable experience among the country's famous peaks. Our Nepal holidays allow the perfect balance of adrenaline-fuelled adventure holiday and thoughtful cultural discovery, meaning there will be something to interest all types of traveller.
Covering the majority of Nepal and translating as "abode of snow", the range contains more than 250 peaks, many of which are more than 6,000 metres tall. Perhaps the most famous of all - not just in Nepal but around the world - is Mount Everest. Conquering this magnificent peak has long been an obsession for adventurous travellers, although perhaps the best way to enjoy a hike is to head to Everest Base Camp. Although this means you cannot add your name to the rollcall of people who have reached the summit, these type of trekking holidays still offers a huge sense of achievement and unrivalled views of the surrounding area, sure to please anyone looking for a Nepal trekking holiday. Going via Gokyo Lake offers a slightly more challenging route for the more experienced trekker, allowing tourists to check out the Cho La pass. If you want to enjoy the challenges and satisfaction first hand try a trekking holiday in Nepal.
Accommodation often comes in the form of teahouses on Nepal holidays, allowing travellers to meet local people and share their experiences. After, or perhaps before, a trip up Everest, the city of Kathmandu can offer a chance for exciting cultural discovery and quiet reflection.
The nation's capital is well known for its Buddhist and Hindu temples, along with the Vishumati River. Many of the smaller towns and villages also reward exploration on Nepal holidays and tours - Bhaktapur and Pokharaa are perfect places to begin a trek into the Himalayas.
Meanwhile, the Chitwan National Park is a must for extreme sports enthusiasts as it offers the chance to enjoy white water rafting.
