the amazing things you'll be doing
More than any thing else, Nepal is best known for it's mountains, mountaineering & peak climbing. Nowhere else on earth can you find such a concentration of high snow capped peaks and have the opportunity to climb some of the highest peaks in the world. Of course, Everest immediately comes to mind when people think of Nepal but what is less often known is that Nepal is home to another seven peaks over 8000 meters and innumerable others between six and eight thousand meters.
Currently more than 326 peaks in Nepal are available for expeditions with an additional 33 minor Nepal climbing peaks being designated as “Trekking Peaks in Nepal”.

how this holiday makes a difference

Responsible tourism is very much imperative as it becomes a responsibility of each and every individual in the tourism industry as the very sustainability of the industry depends on this significant factor. Before our Peak Climbing Trips commence our guide will brief group members on the importance of conservation in the environment as part of our responsible tourism efforts.
Each of the Nepal Peaks require permits to enter each region. All permit fees go into fourteen areas of Nepal which have been designated National Parks, Wildlife Reserve and Conservation Areas to improve trekking routes and trails. All our climbing guides have a duty to ensure base camps and other camps are left perfectly clean at the conclusion of the climb. No foreign materials such as fix ropes, pitons shall be left on the mountain. As with each of our peak climbs we pay a garbage deposit to ensure all rubbish and waste material is carried out or otherwise disposed off in a responsible manner. The hotel in Kathmandu has notices in the bathrooms about saving water and towel usage. The guest house and tented accommodation along this tour is of a very basic standard, as our guest house accommodation partners provide basic facilities, minimal energy is used for the operation of the guest houses along with our tented camps. We are minimizing the use of non-bio degradable products, and using organic vegetables, fruits and consumables which are sourced from the surrounding communities to benefit the local villages. All our climbing and trekking equipment is sourced and purchased locally. We understand and appreciate the hard work the guides and porters perform. Therefore we treat and obey the following Guide & Porter Policy to ensure the conditions for our guides and porters are of a humane standard. We work towards eliminating avoidable illness, injury and death. We are dedicated to giving something back to the local community the Sambhav Nepal Foundation is a registered Nepalese charity that we are associated with. With the foundation our aim is to offer English medium schooling and health services for a remote isolated region of Gorkha. |
Tourism can be good and bad for destinations & local people. We carefully screen every holiday against our criteria for responsible travel. 'Look behind the brochure' to find how each holiday makes a difference (see left). We don't claim to be perfect - there is no global accreditation - but we've led the way since 2001 and screened 1000's of holidays. We invite every traveller to write a review about their experiences and responsible tourism. This valuable feedback is sent to the people who run the holidays. We keep a very close eye on it and take off holidays that don't live up to our standards. |
