The LGBT outdoor pursuits charity, OutdoorLads is organising two amazing trips to the mountain kingdom of Nepal this November.
The Annapurna Sanctuary trek is one of the world’s most iconic treks. After days of trekking through beautiful steep sided valleys, pristine terraced fields, past foaming mountain rivers, across snow fields and through tiny rural villages, you reach your destination where you will be standing at over 4,100m and surrounded by 6 of the worlds highest mountains.
This is a truly awe-inspiring place. To be here is a once in a lifetime experience and you can do it with OutdoorLads this November.
OutdoorLads don’t have just one ‘once in a lifetime’ trip though – they are organising two!
The Sun Kosi river descent in Nepal is one of the top ten white water river descents in the world. In addition to out-standing white-water rafting, the Sun Kosi offers varied and changing landscape from terraced farmland to steep gorges and then to sub-tropical jungles. You’ll be camping on large, sandy river banks in close contact with wildlife and people from the local villages. The final part of the river is the most dramatic with 10kms of nearly non-stop class IV (that’s ‘huge’ for the non technical) rapids through the ‘Jungle Corridor, and climaxing with the ‘Big Dipper’.
