While you have grate desire more than trekking, Nepal
offers many mountaineering sports in different mountains.
The 800km stretch of the Nepal Himalaya is the greatest
in the world with eight peaks that rise above 8000m
including Mt. Everest, the tallest mountain in the world.
Ever since the country opened its peaks to climbers
in 1949, the Nepal Himalaya has become a great adventure
of mountaineering activity and the success and failure
have provided impetus to thousands of men and women
to the ultimate challenges around the world.
The first succeed expedition on Mt.
Everest was in 1951 by New Zealander Edmund Hillary
and famous Norgay Tenzing Sherpa. This expedition leads
a way to many people, philosophers, mountaineers, researchers
and adventures. There are still many sizeable peaks
which have not been successfully climbed and some which
haven’t even been successfully attempted. So hurry
up yourself you may be the first Climber to attempt
such mountains. |
