Trekking in Nepal



Trekking in Nepal

Trekking is completely different from other forms of holiday or travel experiences and can be done in any part of the world. Compared to pre booked organized holidays it is more ‘open-plan’ and is governed more by local topography and weather conditions than the rigid keeping to pre booked airline or bus timetables.

Trekkers walk through areas not always accessible to organized tours. They are free to experience and sample the local scenery and interact with it as they please.

 Many areas are particularly popular with trekkers, especially the mountainous areas of the Himalayas in Nepal and Bhutan. But treks can be arranged in any area that appeals to the holiday maker for as long or as short as they wish.

 It is very important to have the right gear or equipment. A good backpack that is comfortably fitting is most important as many items necessary for various periods of trekking   are needed to be carried. A backpack which can hold 10 – 15 kilos of clothing and gear is ideal. Next are hiking boots that are both strong and comfortable. And, of course, warm clothing, a first aid kit and a supply of food and water. Of course, it is best to seek guidance from a professional trekking company who are the experts and will supply a qualified trekking guide who will give you expert guidance and make your trekking a most enjoyable experience.

What’s so special about Lumbini ?

Image
Buddha passed away at the age of 80. Before he left, he asked his disciples to visit his birthplace Lumbini, at least once in their lifetime. He also asked them to spread this message among others. He said that it could be their first step towards salvation. One of the major attractions in that place is the Ashokan pillar, built around 250 BC by the Indian Emperor Ashoka, to mark the birthplace of the ‘Light of Asia’. It was found in around 1896 AD after which the area was recognized as one of the four main Buddhist pilgrims’ site. Another attraction is a holy pond, it is said that Mayadevi, mother of Buddha, took a dip inside the pond before giving him birth and also, where Buddha had his first bath. The most significant structure there; is the Mayadevi temple which has been built upon a shrine that marks the exact location of Buddha’s birth. Now, there’s something interesting found here recently. Archaeologist Robert Coningham and colleagues, from Du...

Facts You Need To Know When You Travel in Nepal.

Image
Photo credit : Noé - turtletramp.com Nepal is so much fun : each day is a surprise, a new adventure, a learning. You will have to make your own mistakes to get to know the culture, but here are some little tips that might help you during your first days on this sacred land : 1- Your black coffee will be filled with sugar. You crave for a black coffee. A big, tasty, strong black coffee. No milk, no sugar; you like it 100% black. Here you are at a local restaurant, ordering your holy Grail. It arrives, in its beautiful dark robe, and all your senses are arising. You take the warm cup between your hands, smell this delicious aroma, and prepare your lips to kiss the exquisite beverage. All the sudden, the divine moment collapses : the taste of your succulent coffee is masked by the sweetness of a ounce of white sugar. Urgh. You go to ask for another coffee without sugar, and you end up with a black-coloured water slightly tasting like coffee. You do the mistake once, and twice, a...

A Tourists’ Guide to Celebrating Holi in Nepal

Image
A Tourists’ Guide There is one Hindu festival I look forward to more than any other here in Nepal, Holi, or the Festival of Colors. Its history is interesting, but the experience is amazing. Although the Hindu epic that began this tradition was about the death of a demon and good triumphing over evil, like Easter’s original roots, it may be more about celebrating the birth of spring. I have to admit that it is much more fun than an Easter Egg hunt.
