What documents do you need for hiking in Nepal? Hiking areas in Nepal

Little friends, do you want to know about hiking in Nepal? In addition to some hiking equipment, you usually need to know the pass and hiking map. The following small series will introduce you to the relevant hiking information.

Manas Lufeng Great Ring Road

Tourists who go hiking on Mount Manaslu mainly take the Great Ring Road of Mount Manaslu.

It is considered as the second route of the Great Ring Road of Anna Poorna Peak. However, due to the strict restrictions imposed by the government, the number of mountain inns in this area is insufficient, and even fewer hikers choose the Manas Lufeng Great Ring Road. (Only 33 19 people in 20 12 years).

Manas Lufeng Great Ring Road also enjoys the beautiful mountain scenery around the Himalayas. Located in Gollo area with a long history, it is accompanied by mountains, ice and snow, rare animals and plants, villages and temples with local culture.

Permit/license

License for Manas Nature Reserve Project (MCAP): about 20 euros or 30 dollars.

Poorna Anna Nature Reserve Project (ACAP) license: about 20 euros or 30 dollars.

It must be obtained through a regular travel agency registered with the Tourism Bureau and the Hiking Association. You can also go to Nepal Tourism Bureau in Kathmandu, but letting your organization arrange will leave you a lot of trouble.

TSUM Valley/Chum Valley (Gurkha District)

TSUM Valley in Gurkha District was opened to the public only after 2007, and it is one of the recently developed hiking areas. The valley includes two remote villages, Chumchet and Chhekampar. The name "Tsum" comes from Tibetan "Tsombo", which means "vivid".

This route crosses the undeveloped "Tsumbas" jungle and valley on foot, mainly gathering private capital for the Gulong people. An interesting fact about this place is that most people who live here claim to have seen or seen a "snowman" in this area. Buddhism has a long history and culture here. It is believed that the Buddhist saint Milarepa once meditated in the cave.

The influx of tourists is highly controlled by the government, so the outside world knows little about it, which makes many religious and archaeological heritages in the valley still unexplored.

From 65438+February to August = $25 for the first 8 days.

Get on the wild horse/get on the wild horse

Shamus was once an independent kingdom ruled by a monarch. Before 2008, it existed as an independent kingdom. Tang Kingdom was founded in 1440 and has existed for nearly 600 years in history. Due to political reasons, foreigners have been allowed to enter from 1992, and it is still a protected area that is not fully open. The number of hikers is strictly limited every year. In addition to the regular mountain entry permit, each traveler must pay a special government permit of $500, and only a few permits are issued each year.

Permit/license

Admission fee for entering the Wild Horse = USD 500/person for the first ten days (USD 50 for each additional day thereafter).

Upper Dolpo/ Upper Dolpo (also translated as Duopo)

Duole is completely different from other places in Nepal, with amazing landscape and cultural differences.

It is located in the northwest of Nepal, adjacent to Tibet and belongs to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. It is a part of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, with the largest area among 75 regions in Nepal. From the 6th century to the 8th century, Tibetans migrated to Dorpo and Kumon, and have been practicing Tibetan Buddhism and Bonism for centuries. Moreover, it is a pure form of early Buddhism, which retains many early religious traditions and customs. The ancient manuscripts discovered by Dolbo predicted Dolbo's Buddha prophecy. Lonely meditation can open the door to enlightenment.

However, due to the restrictions on tourists, the roads are not smooth, and the regional infrastructure is still in the primitive stage, so it is not known to many international tourists, and even Nepalese locals who may be born and raised in Kathmandu know little about this area.

The hiking route here will cross the huge mountains, reach Numa La Pass(5 190 meters) and reach Lake Phoksundo in Ringmo Village of Phoksundo National Park. After a day's rest, tourists can continue to take different hiking routes and reach destinations such as Jumla.

Permit/license

Entry permit fee for Upper Dolbo = USD 500/first 10 day (USD 50 for each additional day).

Entry permit fee for entering Dolpo = 10 USD/week.

Tip: Hiking in Nepalese unrestricted areas requires two kinds of hiking certificates (required): a mountain entry permit (such as the one called ACAP in Anna Poorna Nature Reserve) and a hiker management system fee (TIMS card).

According to the regulations, hiking routes in restricted areas require at least two hikers to walk together and be led by at least one professional hiking guide.

If your itinerary includes a restricted area, in addition to the general hiking permit, you need to apply for a special permit: 50 US dollars/week (from 20 1 1).

Please note that if you have already purchased a restricted area pass, you do not need a TIMS card!
