Nepal trekking tourism recovery after weather disruptions

Overview

Tourism in Nepal’s trekking regions is recovering following significant disruptions caused by floods, landslides, and heavy rain. In the Annapurna Circuit, trail-clearing operations have successfully reopened access, including the Thorong La Pass. Daily visitor numbers at the Dharapani information centre have risen to approximately 150 to 200 people, a marked increase from periods when severe weather reduced arrivals to nearly zero.

In the Myagdi district, the revival of tourism is supported by the reopening of the Beni-Jomsom road, which had been blocked by flooding from the Kali Gandaki River. The restoration of this route has allowed visitors to return to destinations such as Poon Hill and Annapurna Base Camp. While local businesses anticipate an increase in travelers during the Dashain and Tihar festival seasons, officials noted that international arrival numbers may not fully reach previous years due to the extent of infrastructure damage.
