Chitwan
A gateway to Nepal’s wild side, Chitwan is known for its lush forests, rivers, grasslands, and diverse wildlife. Home to Chitwan National Park, the region offers opportunities to spot one-horned rhinoceroses, crocodiles, deer, and many species of birds, with the chance of encountering a Bengal tiger. Beyond wildlife, you can experience local Tharu culture, village life, jungle walks, canoe rides, and safari adventures.
Kathmandu
Kathmandu is a remarkable blend of ancient heritage and living culture, with seven UNESCO World Heritage monument zones spread across a valley roughly 20 kilometres wide. As the main gateway for travellers arriving in Nepal, the city has a history of continuous settlement dating back to at least the 2nd century BC.
Lumbini
The birthplace of Lord Buddha and one of the most important pilgrimage sites in the world. Located in Nepal’s southern plains, Lumbini is home to sacred gardens, ancient ruins, monasteries, and the Maya Devi Temple, where visitors can explore the spiritual and historical roots of Buddhism.
Pokhara
Set at around 822 metres above sea level, Pokhara is one of Nepal’s most popular mountain destinations and a natural starting point for exploring the Annapurna region. The city stretches along the peaceful shores of Phewa Lake, with spectacular Himalayan views and Annapurna I rising in the distance. At roughly 28 km away, Annapurna I is among the closest 8,000-metre peaks to a major city.
Annapurna Region
The Annapurna Region is one of Nepal’s most diverse trekking destinations, centred around the spectacular Annapurna mountain range. Annapurna I made mountaineering history in 1950 as the first 8,000-metre peak to be successfully climbed. Today, the region is best known for the Annapurna Circuit and Annapurna Base Camp treks, where the landscape changes dramatically from high-altitude valleys and dry mountain terrain around Thorong La to lush, subtropical surroundings at lower elevations.
Everest Region
Home to Mount Everest and the legendary Khumbu Valley, the Everest Region is a spectacular mix of towering peaks, Sherpa villages, Buddhist monasteries, and high-altitude landscapes. The journey usually begins in Lukla before following mountain trails through villages such as Namche Bazaar and Tengboche towards Everest Base Camp at 5,364 metres. For those with more time, the turquoise Gokyo Lakes and surrounding high mountain passes offer another unforgettable side of the region.
Langtang Region
Just north of Kathmandu, the Langtang Valley offers a rewarding Himalayan experience without travelling far from the capital. Located within Langtang National Park, Nepal’s first Himalayan national park, the region is known for mountain scenery, peaceful villages and rich Tamang culture. After the devastating 2015 earthquake and landslides, local Tamang communities worked hard to rebuild their homes and welcoming mountain settlements.
Mustang Region
Once a restricted kingdom, Upper Mustang opened to international travellers in 1992 and retained its monarchy until 2008. Tucked behind the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri ranges, the region lies in a natural rain shadow, creating a dry, desert-like landscape in the heart of the Himalayas. This makes Upper Mustang one of Nepal’s distinctive trekking destinations and a particularly interesting option during the monsoon season.

Other Region
Behind Dhaulagiri lies Nepal's most remote inhabited region: a trans-Himalayan desert of Tibetan villages, Bon shrines and the country's deepest lake. Salt caravans still cross the passes, and the Oscar-nominated film Himalaya was shot here.
