Nepal is a country of incredible natural beauty with a rich cultural heritage.
Located between the two Asian giants -- China and India -- it is perhaps best known for its
breathtaking mountain ranges, including Mt. Everest (8,850m.), the highest point on
earth. The city of Lumbini, located near the southern border with India, is the birthplace of Lord Buddha.
And throughout virtually the entire country one may find and experience beautiful sacred temples and shrines
of the Buddhist and Hindu religions. Nepal is home to approximately
25 million people as varied as the terrain in which they live, with over 35
different tribal and ethnic groups.
But most of all, Nepal is a mecca for trekkers and tourists of all ilks who thrive on the challenges of the high
country terrain, or who prefer the more gentle slopes and rich cultural attractions at the lower elevations, where views
and photo opportunities of the rugged peaks in the distance abound.
Because Snow Lion Adventure Trekking is a small company, based in Kathmandu, they
can operate with great flexibility and low overhead, enabling you to have the adventure of your
dreams at a cost that is consistent with your means.
