Nepal DofE Expedition

This trip will be a challenging, varied and exciting 14-day expedition to the Himalayan Kingdom of Nepal. There is time to explore and enjoy the sights and sounds of Kathmandu at the end of the trip. From Kathmandu we drive west to Pokhara and undertake a Gold DofE qualifying expedition in the foothills of the Annapurna, through tiny villages with the backdrop of the dramatic snow-capped mountains.  After this we undertake a worthwhile community project with a local school before heading back to Kathmandu.

This is a true adventure and one that you are certain to enjoy!
