Himalayan Adventure Volunteer Trips in Nepal

General Info

First Week: Starting in Kathmandu, the remote Himalayan mountain capital of Nepal, you will spend you first week acclimatising, enjoying cultural visits around the city and, most importantly, attending Nepali classes. The classes will help you communicate in the more rural areas and really get the most out of your time here.

Second Week: From Kathmandu you will head into one of the rural valleys of Nepal where you will meet the Nepali family that you will live with during your time on the Rural Communities Development Programme (RCDP). Helping with the cooking in the evenings will be just one of the things that will make you a part of the family, but during the day you will be working on the RCDP school project. Here you will provide vital assistance, including developing resources and possibly some simple English teaching, depending on what is required at the time.

Third Week: As you bid farewell to your host family you will head off to the Royal Chitwan National Park where you visit an elephant breeding centre and then climb aboard your elephant to track the one horned rhino and the famous Bengal Tiger. As you are at the base of the glaciers run-off from the Himalayas we take advantage of this with a day's canoeing or rafting - subject to the flow. A unique way to see Nepal. Jungle walks to Tharu villages, where you can experience the Thrau Stick Dance, will complete your Nepalese experience.
