ESSENTIAL INFO
Take part in this spectacular trek in the Nepali Himalayas in aid of the ISIS Foundation and Kathmandu Kids Club. In a country ravaged by poverty and overcoming the effects of a very recent civil war, the key purpose of the ISIS foundation in Nepal is to help impoverished Nepalese children overcome their plight. Thousands of Himalayan children have been forced by civil war from the safety of their parents homes. Many of these children arrive at the capital, in an appalling and desperate state, suffering from malnutrition, disease and shock. Other children, unable to leave the mountains due to poverty or lack of resources, are at serious risk of dying from easily preventable diseases.
Containing nine of the world's fourteen highest mountain peaks, Nepal is a true Himalayan kingdom. The Himalayas cover three quarters of the land in Nepal. It is home to some of the highest, most remote, most rugged and most difficult terrain in the world. The loftiest peak in the world, Mount Everest, and other high altitude peaks like Lhotse, Nuptse, Annapurna, Dhaulagiri and Manaslu, plus the presence of some exquisitely beautiful trekking routes, make this the most spectacular place for your challenge. What better way to make a difference to those at the Kathmandu Kids Club.
Your end goal is to reach Jomsom, the largest town in the region, from where you will take a scenic flight back to Pokhara and then on to Kathmandu with superb views of the Dhaulagiri, Nilgiri, Annapurna and Manaslu mountains.
