The Explore Nepal

Clean up of trekking and mountaineering routes

Many visitors that come to Nepal are not well informed about Nepalese cultural values or the fragile and sensitive mountain environment. In many tourist routes lots of garbage, toilet paper and plastic bags are left and trees are cut for firewood that contributes to deforestation.

The Explore Nepal Group strives to discourage 'tourism' from damaging the culture, heritage and environment of the country.

Our Activities:

• Have dedicated porter(s) to carry waste generated from treks and bring it back to Kathmandu where it is recycled or disposed of accordingly.
• Campsites or lodges used must fall into our code of conduct which is environmentally sustainable.
