Move beyond the trekking trails and onto the vertical walls of the Kathmandu Valley and beyond. Nepal’s rock climbing scene offers a unique blend of technical sport climbing and breathtaking scenery. Scale the natural limestone cliffs of Nagarjun Forest, navigate the challenging overhangs of Hattiban, or head to Bimalnagar for massive 55-meter multi-pitch routes with views of the Marsyangdi River. Whether you’re a beginner learning to belay at an indoor gym in Thamel or an expert seeking a 5.12a challenge in the wild, Nepal’s jagged geography provides the perfect natural playground to test your strength, balance, and mental focus.
