Nepal
The Himalaya's front door and the cheapest serious mountain destination on earth. Nepal's tea-house trekking means weeks in the high mountains with a daypack, a bed and a dal bhat at the end of each day.

सुरक्षा
Low crime. The risks are environmental: altitude sickness, landslides and road accidents in the monsoon, and avalanches on high passes. Solo trekking rules have changed several times; check current requirements for guides in national parks.
आधिकारिक सलाह: Nepal - Level 2: Exercise Increased Caution (U.S. Department of State, ). UK FCDO सलाह ↗
स्वास्थ्य
Acute mountain sickness is the serious one; ascend slowly and carry insurance that explicitly covers helicopter evacuation at altitude. Kathmandu's air pollution is severe in winter. CIWEC and Nepal International clinics are the travellers' standard.
पैसा
Cash economy outside Kathmandu and Pokhara; carry rupees into the mountains, where ATMs are scarce and prices rise with altitude. ATMs cap withdrawals at around 35,000 rupees with fees.
टिप देना: Expected for guides and porters; appreciated in restaurants · नल का पानी: Not drinkable; filtered water refills are widely available on trekking routes
आसपास घूमना
Tourist buses between Kathmandu, Pokhara and Chitwan are slow but safe enough; domestic flights to Lukla and Jomsom are weather-dependent. Pathao and inDrive handle Kathmandu rides.
SIM और कनेक्टिविटी
Ncell and Nepal Telecom SIMs are cheap at the airport (bring passport photos). Coverage on main trekking routes is surprisingly good; buy an Everest Link card for the Khumbu.
