Peak Climbing
- Nepal
|
 |
|
For amateur
climbers and
people having limited timeframe to full fill the
dream of climbing a snowcapped peak in Nepal, the
trekking peak climbing is an option instead of
undertaking major time consuming climbing
expedition. Since
1978, Nepal Mountaineering Association (NMA) has the
right to issue
permits for the peaks classified as Trekking Peaks.
Along with normal trekking permit, climbers must obtain climbing permit from Nepal Mountaineering
Association (NMA) through Abound Asian Adventures.
Climbing permit for trekking peaks can be obtained at a
short time but it would be much convenient and
suggestible to obtain such permits in advance by
sending your passport details to us and we will get
permit for you along with your trekking arrangement.
All our trip to trekking peaks are supported by well trained and license holder Sherpa guides,
field staff and proper camping gears at our risk. |

Gears |

climbing gears
can be bought or rented in Kathmandu. Our
climbing guide will assist you to select
proper climbing gears in case you don't have
your own gears. In such case, if
request is made in advance, we will include
the climbing gears in our package (at extra
payable) while providing other supporting
package like climbing permit, food, transportations to and
from the trek starting and ending points,
experienced and trained guides (trained by
Nepal Mountaineering Association), porters,
insurance coverage for our staff including
porters. The basic knowledge of altitude sickness
is suggestible before attempting a peak
and pre-caution is a must for
amateur climbers along with your personal
insurance coverage to deal with emergency
rescue by helicopter in case of unpleasant
encounter during a climbing course. It is
also suggestible to have Oxygen-set or Gamov
Bag in case of emergency. The fatal sickness, also
'known as Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS)
is a danger for climbers ascending 3,000
meters and above. Symptoms include headache,
loss of appetite and sleeplessness.
Immediate descent or evacuation to tower
altitude is the best cure. |
