关于本栏目
Records & People
A new national census puts Nepal's tiger population at a record high, the fastest tiger recovery of any country on Earth — and it's reshaping what a Chitwan or Bardia safari actually looks like.
Records & People
On 3 June 1950, two Frenchmen became the first humans to stand on an 8,000-metre summit — three years before Everest. The descent nearly killed them both.
Records & People
Six metres below Everest's summit, geologists have found fossils of sea creatures that died 450 million years before Hillary and Tenzing were born — and the mountain is still rising to meet them.
Safety & Advisories
Climbers came home with before-and-after photos. Nepal's tourism department told them not to talk about it. Here's what actually happened to the Hillary Step — and why the same stretch of ridge is still making headlines in 2026.
Industry & Tourism
China's 2025 pledge to flood Nepal with half a million visitors delivered barely a fifth of that number. Days ago, a five-person tourism delegation from Sichuan sat down with Nepal Tourism Board to plan the next attempt.
Flights & Access
No airline flies nonstop from the US to Kathmandu — here is exactly how Americans actually get there, what a real Everest Base Camp trek costs in dollars, and an itinerary built around the flight.
Trail & Weather
One crosses a 5,416-metre pass into the desert beyond the Himalaya; the other walks into a glacial amphitheatre at 4,130 metres. Here's which one actually matches what you're picturing when you say Annapurna.
Flights & Access
No direct flight links Frankfurt or Munich to Kathmandu, but a Doha or Istanbul connection gets you there in under 15 hours — here is what a two-week Everest trek actually costs a German trekker this year.
Festivals & Events
Mani Rimdu, the Sherpa Buddhist festival that has run for over a century, returns to Tengboche Monastery around 26–28 October 2026. Here is what actually happens, and how to build an Everest Base Camp trek around it.
Records & People
Joe Brown and George Band summited Kangchenjunga on a promise never to stand on its true top. A 2025 Indian Army climb from the Nepal side broke that unwritten rule again, and reignited a decades-old fight over whether the mountain should be climbed at all.
Industry & Tourism
Nepal Tourism Board's fresh mid-year data show 621,624 foreign arrivals in the first half of 2026 and an accelerating June — here's exactly where visitors are coming from, and what the surge means for booking an autumn trek.
Flights & Access
There is still no nonstop flight from Britain to Kathmandu. Here is the real routing, an all-in cost table in pounds, and a day-by-day Everest Base Camp itinerary for UK trekkers booking autumn 2026.
