An important part
of the trekking experience is seeing how these people
live. While trek, you can observe and learn about day
by day activities and a life style which you close to
the land and very different from the west.
Although life in the foothills of the Himalaya has been
impacted by trekkers you can still observe traditional
method of farming, cooking, trades, child rearing, construction
and religious activities. The trail are generally well
maintained and are actively used by the Nepalese for
communication, trades and travel. You will share the
trail with many pack animals [burros] and hard working
porters who carry heavy load of supplies, much of which
is consumed by trekkers.
While trekking you will also see the great diversity
of Nepal. Villages embrace many ethnic groups and cultures. |
