 Very few countries in the world can offer as many varieties of adventure tourism
packages as Nepal. Of the 14 peaks above 8000 meters in the world eight are
located in Nepal. It is the land of Sagarmatha (Mount. Everest, 8848 meters),
the highest peak in the world and other 1310 mountain peaks.
For those who can not withstand the rigorousness of mountain climbing there are
mountain flights which fly around the Mount Everest and provide a close look of
the top of the world. Also from Nagarkot (32 kilometres East of Kathmandu) and
Daman (80 Kilometres south-west of Kathmandu) one can have a distant view of
Mount Everest and beautiful Himalayan ranges. Trekking is the best way to get to
interesting and remote mountain villages of Nepal and to enjoy views of the
famous peaks together with their lifestyle untouched with modern civilization.
The river rafting, which is known as "White Water Adventure" represents another
major attractions. Within distance of 100 miles, one can see the topographical
variations with the rivers rising from the higher points near Nepal's Tibetan
border and then dropping dramatically to lower levels the plains bordering
India. For those who wish to view wildlife, Nepal offers plenty of scope. Of the
eight National Parks and four Wildlife Reserves and two conservation areas in
Nepal.

provides ample opportunities for fishing, swimming, canoeing and boating along
with the sightseeing of majestic panoramic views in its background. It is only
Pokhara, a tropical spot with an altitude of about 900 meters where from one can
see the mountain crossing over 8000meters from such a short distance of about 40
kilometres. For the nature lovers Nepal is such a land of natural beauty that
metaphors cannot delineate its real picture. At the same time, Nepal proffers an
incomparable scope to the scholars and connoisseurs of art and culture to see and
study the different aspects of the fine-arts be it painting, sculpture, wood
