When colonel jimmy robes opened mountain travel in 1955, his travel
company began the history of trekking in Nepal. The concept was similar
to the expedition approach used by mountaineers, with guides, porters
and tents. Nepal is a trekker’s paradise. More than 85% of the total
population lives in rural areas. Although transport and communications
have bought about great changes in the lives of the people, many still
live a simple rural life. One need not be a mountaineer or experienced
walker to trek in different parts of the country. Currently, in Nepal,
two kinds of trekking are popular- teahouse or lodge trekking and tent
trekking.

| Everest Region |
Mt. Everest has inspired countless dreams and adventures, including
visions of scaling the highest mountain on earth to those of getting a
taste of the high mountains with a pack on their back and a camera in
hand; ready to capture some incredible views of the lofty snowy
mountain peaks that seem to grow in this region.

mountain peaks that seem to grow in this region.
The original route taken on the first ascent of Everest was from Jiri,
but now the usual approach to this region begins with a breathtaking
flight from Katmandu to Lukla airstrip (2,800 meters). Here you are
surrounded by the glistening spires of snow peaks from the start of the
trek, and they only get higher and more magnificent as you go. The
route is dotted by sacred Tibetan Buddhist mani stones (engraved with
prayers and Buddhist images), prayer flags, and the occasional stupa
(representing the mind of Buddha). The winding Dudha and Bhote Koshi
rivers are a beautiful glacier-fed aqua blue, joined by many
tributaries supporting waterfalls. Trekkers can wander up to bustling
Namche Bazaar, to the revered Tengboche Monastery, to crystalline Gokyo
Lake, historic Everest Base Camp, and many other remarkable places in
the Everest region. You share the trail with yak trains and Tibetan
nomads and can choose to stay in simple but welcoming guesthouses in
all but the most remote areas. Treks can be from one week to more than
a month

Manaslu is the highest peak in the Lamjung district and is located about forty miles east of Annapurna, the world's tenth highest mountain.

Manaslu was first climbed on May 9, 1956 by Toshio Imanishi and Gyalzen Norbu, members of a Japanese expedition.
