There is no finer way of getting to know Nepal than by discarding the burdens of Western society, wandering her trails and growing receptive to her charms. Trekking holds the key to a wealth of experience, and Nepal will repay tenfold all your labours.
This book is a guide to two relatively small regions of this diversity of landscape, culture and vegetation. The first is a high, seemingly remote valley running parallel with the Tibetan border and flanked by lofty mountains; the second is more populous, with verdant hillsides, a benevolent climate and several prosperous villages, while the lake of Gosainkund are trapped in wild country wedged between he two.
Packed with useful information for both independent and group trekkers, plus over 20 trekking routes, glossary and bibliography, Kev Reynolds has written another outstanding Trekkers'' Guide to add those on Annapurna and Everest.
