3. Where is Nepal?
It is amazing to find that many people in the world have no clue where
Nepal is. They even do not know where Mt. Everest or the birthplace of
Buddha is. Nepal is a very small country sandwiched between two giant
countries namely China and India. Due to geographical location of
Nepal, it remains one of the poorest countries in the world. However, it
may be poor in economy but very rich in natural resources and natural
beauties.
Thousands of people visit Nepal for trekking, rafting, cultural tour,
paragliding, bungee jump, sky diving, zip line, jungle safari and many
other adventure sports. Only daring tourists take such route to
adventure in Nepal.

4. Trekking in Nepal
One of the most fascinating things about Nepal is that it has many
Himalayas that are highest in the world. Thousands of trekkers from all
around the world come to Nepal for trekking expedition. The most
famous expedition is Mt. Everest expedition.
Medium level trekking in Nepal for example Ganesh Himal Trekking, Langtang
Trekking, Manaslu trekking, and Poon Hill trekking are world famous trekking.
Where is Everest?
Mt. Everest is the highest mountain in the world. It is 8848 meter high
located in Nepal in the border with Tibet. Hundreds of professional
mountaineers come to Nepal to summit Everest. This is one in a lifetime
opportunity and the adventure mountaineers spend thousands of
dollars to achieve their goal. The first summiteers of Everest were Sir
Edmond Hilary and Tenzing Norgay Sherpa back in May 29, 1953.
What is the cost of climbing Everest?
Climbing Everest is expensive. It is expensive because this is how Nepal is earning
money from its tourism sector. It costs around $35k to 65$ for climbing Everest.
The more high you go the more you have to pay.

7. How do you find right trekking agencies in Nepal?
Since the tourism has flourished, the travel agencies, hotels and apartment
business have mushroomed. Even though there are hundreds of agencies in
Thamel, the main hub of tourist, you have to be careful how to judge them.
Thanks to the internet, you can read reviews on many reputed sites like Lonely
Planet, TripAdvisor, Agoda and many more.
For example, if you were to learn more about Adventure Bound Nepal then the
best and fast way to do is going to TripAdvisor Review for Adventure Bound Nepal
and that brings the reviews by tourists or clients of this agency.
What to Expect in Nepal?
Expectation can be huge or less, but one thing is for sure, and that is when you
come to Nepal, you will certainly feel very different world than. People are busy
and they are calm at the same time. However, one thing can bother you is the
traffic, dust and trash. Sometimes it can be chaotic and sometime ridiculously
comic. Still people are friendly and they greet you with Namaste.
Nepal is overall a great country. They pride themselves in history, natural
resources. So if you are planning to visit or thinking of trekking in Nepal then
better start doing research, ask around, see YouTube videos, and decide.
Thank you and I hope you enjoyed this very short informational e-book about
Nepal and trekking.
