Eco-Tourism Nepal



Massive mountains, rolling hills, abundant vegetation and diverse wildlife – it is little wonder that Nepal is a popular tourist destination and the ideal location for ecotourism. Ecotourism in Nepal is the main form of tourism in the country aside from the attractions of Kathmandu and other historical cities. From wildlife viewing, to wilderness camps, hiking vacations and white water rafting Nepal's ecotourism industry is flourishing.
In an area of 147 181 km squared the landscape of Nepal changes from lowlands towards the highest highest in the world, this is truly a land of extreme diversity. From tropical to arctic climates, Nepal's great diversity is a real drawcard. Despite its relatively small size, Nepal contains significant percentages of wildlife, such as 2,04 % of the world's flowering higher plants and 8,6 % of its birds. Nepal contains some 5833 species of gymnosperms and flowering plants with some 315 endemic species of higher plants, 847 bird species, 185 mammal species, 43 amphibian species, 100 reptile species, 656 butterfly species and 185 fresh water fish species have been identified in Nepal.
