Nepal tourism and trekking trends

Overview

Nepal’s tourism sector encompasses a wide range of activities, including cultural exploration in the Kathmandu Valley, jungle safaris in Chitwan National Park, and various adventure sports such as white-water rafting and paragliding.

Within the trekking sector, specific routes like the Annapurna Circuit remain prominent. Meanwhile, the Manaslu Circuit has experienced a significant surge in popularity, with foreign trekkers in the Manaslu Conservation Area increasing from approximately 2,000 to over 12,000 during the 2025 season. This growth in popularity coincides with changes to the traditional trekking landscape caused by road construction in the Budhi Gandaki region.
