Description:
Nepal is the Himalayan Kingdom known as the land of the Mount Everest and the birthplace of Lord Buddha. Located on the southern slopes of the Himalayan Mountains, it is as ethically diverse as its terrain of fertile plains, broad valleys and the highest mountain peaks in the world. It is a land of sublime scenery, time-worn temples and some of the best hiking trails on the earth. It is rich in scenic splendor and cultural treasures and offers satisfaction to the body, mind and soul.
You can quench your thirst for adventure tourism in Nepal as you can indulge in most outdoor activities at a very reasonable price. The magnificent mountains are perfect for climbing and trekking and are the origin of most of the mighty rivers of Asia. These rivers offer an opportunity to participate in various water adventure sports for both the experienced and the beginner. People who enjoy rafting and canoeing will be delighted with the extent and scope of adventure tourism Nepal provides. You have ample opportunity to fulfill all your desires of learning Kayaking, while water rafting and even climbing.
