It is one year since the devastating earthquake in Nepal, and the country continues to rebuild itself as well as its tourism. What’s most important to this ongoing recovery is that visitors keep coming to trek and climb in Nepal.
With rickshaw travel, visitors to Nepal can trek between soaring mountain peaks through a remote region of the Annapurna mountain range and observe the progress in rebuilding that Nepal has made over the past year.
The local people in the Annapurna range have collaborated with the United Nations Development Fund to create a unique trek where hikers will stay at eco-lodges and family homes, giving guests the opportunity to view the culture and village life of the locals.
Trekkers will also see wonderful wildlife in its natural Nepalese habitat and all the time be surrounded by magnificent mountainous backdrops.
Guests will be welcomed into local homes, some of which are the eco-lodges, in villages that are off the beaten trekking path. They will fall asleep after feeling the comforting warmth of home-cooked Nepalese meals in their stomachs and wake up to watch the sun rise over the Annapurna mountains.
The six-day trek is priced at £395 including accommodation (price based on two people sharing), all meals during the trek, return transfer from Pokhara, English-speaking guide and one porter per two people. rickshawtravel.co.uk
