Mountaineering
in Nepal
The
Himalayan Kingdom, NEPAL boasts EIGHT
OF THE TEN HIGHEST PEAKS IN THE WORLD.
The dauntless icy peaks have, since
time immemorial, challenged the minds
and bodies of those who dare!
Currently,
there are 276 peaks opened for Mountaineering
and Peak Climbing, including the highest
of them all - Mt. Everest. We offer
A COMPLETE RANGE OF PEAK CLIMBING AND
MOUNTAINEERING EXPEDITION SERVICES FOR
ALL THE NEPAL AND TIBET HIMALAYAS. Mountaineering
Teams can choose to take all or part
of our services:
Permit
Acquisition - Highland Sherpa Team
Official Formalities - All Transport
Requirements
Full Base Camp Support - Customs Clearance
and More.
ACCLIMATIZATION
TO HIGH ALTITUDES
We are
all too aware of the effects that a
rarefied atmosphere can have on the
human body, so every expedition we operate
includes a realistic acclimatization
programme. Acclimatization takes time
and there are no safe shortcuts.
PRIVATE
EXPEDITIONS
Any expedition itinerary can be arranged
for private groups. You can cut costs
with the self-led expedition option.
Give us the organizational worries
of your own expedition. Going private
is an increasingly popular option,
which has some distinct advantages:
The cost of going private can be surprisingly
reasonable, particularly if you take
the self-led option. Whether your
expedition idea is clear or completely
vague, you are welcome to contact
us for an initial discussion.
