Information & Tips for Nepal
Nepal, nestled in the Himalayas between China and India, is a country of remarkable natural beauty, diverse cultures, and ancient history. Known for its stunning mountain landscapes, including the towering Mount Everest, Nepal is a paradise for trekkers, spiritual seekers, and adventure enthusiasts.
Nepal’s combination of breathtaking natural scenery, ancient history, and spiritual depth offers an enriching and unforgettable experience for travellers seeking both adventure and cultural immersion. Whether you’re conquering mountain trails or exploring historic sites, Nepal’s beauty and charm will leave an indelible mark on your journey.
Best Time to Visit
The best time to visit Nepal depends on the activities you plan to engage in. The peak trekking seasons are in the spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November), when the weather is clear, and the trails are in the best condition. The monsoon season (June to August) brings heavy rainfall, while the winter months (December to February) can be quite cold at higher altitudes.
Visa & Entry
Visitors to Nepal from many countries, including the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and most European nations, can obtain a visa on arrival at the Tribhuvan International Airport in Kathmandu or at certain land border crossings. The visa allows for various durations of stay, such as 15, 30, or 90 days, and can be extended while in Nepal if needed.
