Ever since the country opened its peaks to climbers in 1949, the Nepal Himalaya has become a great theatre of mountaineering activity and the drama of success and failure have provided impetus to thousands of men and women to the ultimate challenges. The Nepal Himalaya has been an attraction to many people, be they saints, philosophers, researchers or adventures.

The Kingdom of Nepal is a narrow sliver of land squeezed between burgeoning India to the south and the vast Tibetan plateau to the north. She rises from plain to plain, valley to valley, mountain to mountain - a precipitous staircase that ends at the roof of the world, the Abode of Snows.

Eight of the world's 8 highest summits out of 14 highest mountains, including Mt. Everest, lie within her borders. Since its inception in 1984, Nepal has introduced thousands of people around the world to the spectacular high peaks of the Himalayas, from Nepal to Tibet to Bhutan. While most are drawn by the mountains, their lasting memories are with the extraordinary people who inhabit them.
