Trans-Himalayan Trekking started as a mere dream. When three people namely Dr. Gillian, Mr. Gam Bahadur Rai, Mr. Wolfram sat together and planned this they didn’t know it would be a success. To make this dream come true of trekking right across the Nepal they started on 1st of Sept from Simikot.This is not only a trekking opportunity right across
the Nepal but this also allows us to come closer to the lifestyles of different communities of Nepal. In this trekking we walk right through the tram Himalayan part of Nepal that is the border of Himalayan region and hilly region, so it is for sure that you can enjoy the Majestic Mountains while walking in the lush green valleys. So let us follow the footsteps of Dr. Gillian as we are back again in the year 2008 with another part of Trans-Himalayan trek, trekking from the west to the east of Nepal.
