Nepal: Climbing & Expeditions » Mountaineering Adventure for Non-Climbers
Mountaineering Adventure for Non-Climbers
For the more adventurous traveler, there are 18 minor peaks open for Alpine climbing under the Nepal Mountaineering Association. The climbing of these peaks is controlled under the rules and regulations formulated by this Association. Detailed information and application for climbing permits are available from the Association's office or contact us. Please note that in most require snow and ice climbing experience we provide qualified and trained climbing guides to take non-climbers for convenience, safety and expected successes. By Himalayan standards, these are considered minor peaks, but in fact some of them provide relatively challenging snow and ice climbing of high standard, and more so in Winter. The royalty for these peaks ranges from US$ 350.00 to US$ 600.00 depending on the particular peak for up to 12 member climbing team.
