Mountaineering expeditions in Nepal became a popular adventure sport all over the globe since Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay scaled Mt. Everest in May 1953. The lure of the Himalayas is irresistible for mountaineers, as the Himalayas are the highest and most challenging range of mountains on earth. Their breathtaking beauty, vastness, fascination, magic and mystery will always have an everlasting appeal for those who yearn to venture into this majestic Himalayan region.
The numbers of enthusiastic mountaineers who flock to the Himalayas are increasing each year - whether it is simply climbing a trekking peak or a full mountaineering expedition on a 7000 or 8000 metre peak. Joining an expedition group in Nepal has become the dream and ultimate goal for many adventurers and mountaineers.
