Expedition in Nepal

Nepal boasts over 1,300 snow-capped peaks above 6,000 metres, 326 of which are accessible to mountaineers. Most demand complex rock and ice climbing skills, therefore only the most experienced climber should attempt them. Others, however, can be climbed with excellent physical and mental health, as well as knowledge of basic winter equipment such as crampons, ice axes, and fixed rope descent procedures.

Some are extremely popular due to their accessibility (both technically and geographically), such as Putha Hiunchuli, Lamjung Himal, Cho Oyu, Manaslu, Lhotse, and Everest. Aside from technical experience, Everest climbers must have at least one ascent of a peak higher than 6,500 meters in Nepal since 2019. Other summits, however, need a high level of climbing technique, such as Ama Dablam, Cholatse, Baruntse, Nuptse, Makalu, Kanchenjunga or Annapurna.

Expedition Logistics and Regulations

Every climbing expedition aiming to summit an eight-thousand-meter peak or any other mountain must obtain approval from the Ministry of Culture, Tourism, and Civil Aviation. Once secured, the expedition closely follows the approved route and conditions outlined in the permit provided by the Government of Nepal. A government-appointed Liaison Officer forms a vital element of the expedition team.

Before acquiring a permit, an expedition team must pay a trash fee, which is an important step in promoting responsible climbing activities. The amount varies depending on the mountain, ranging from US$ 500 to $4,000. This payment is refundable if the team provides clear evidence of responsible waste disposal.
