Rock climbing is a relatively new addition to Nepal’s adventurous activity list, putting us on the world’s rock climbing bucket list. Though it is a recent growth in the tourist industry, it is not new to Nepal; the sport has been existing since the early 1950s, when the first mountaineers arrived.Climbing has become a popular adventure sport and outdoor recreation for adventure seekers all around the world. Climbing up or across natural rock formations or man-made rock walls with the purpose of reaching the peak of a formation or the endpoints of a pre-defined path is an adventurous and challenging sport for outdoor enthusiasts.
It requires the climber to use his or her hands to support his or her own weight rather than merely providing balance.Climbing is a physically and intellectually difficult activity that puts a climber’s strength, endurance, agility, and balance, as well as mental control, to the test. Climbing may be a risky activity, and appropriate climbing skills and the use of specialist climbing equipment are essential for completing climbs safely.If you’re looking for a cliffhanger in Nepal, the Kathmandu Valley periphery has a few options.
