OUR STORY :

Adventure Alternative Nepal and Moving Mountains Nepal were both born through a strong bond between Gavin Bate, Ang Chhongba Sherpa and Pasang Tendi Sherpa.

Their story is one of those which demonstrates that life has a purpose. People are meant to be and meet. Dreams are not only thoughts, they are pieces of life waiting to be transformed into reality. 

Adventure Alternative Nepal is part of the Adventure Alternative global network which includes Adventure Alternative companies in Kenya, Tanzania, Russia, Borneo and was originally established in the UK. All of the Adventure Alternative companies mirror the ethos and ethics of Adventure Alternative UK and here in Nepal we seek to offer a homelike feeling within our guesthouse and during our treks and tours. We want you to immerse yourself into a meaningful experience that will transform you emotionally and spiritually and one that will also positively impact upon the communities you visit!

What we do :

We are a mountaineering company established and run by mountaineers. We offer activity holidays, such as climbing peaks of the Himalaya, and of course Nepal trekking is world famous with many hidden beautiful landscapes. We also run gap holidays, charitable fundraising expeditions and medical elective placements and specialized trips for groups to remote regions of Nepal.

Also, we work as a destination management organisation for other travel agencies. We offer our assistance to help set up Nepal tour packages or other specific requirements for the companies. For more information, please visit our ground agency page.

As we see it, we engage in tourism in a social and responsible way, allowing everybody involved in our trips to create a balance between nature, local communities and economic development.

Our company seeks to use local resources, in terms of employment, equipment, and staff training. The jobs we offer are not seasonal nor temporary. It is crucial for us to provide yearly work to all of our experts. This bond we have created with our employees has allowed us to root a really strong basis for the Adventure Alternative Nepal business.

From this point, we have been able to develop a fair and transparent tourism in Nepal and we do everything in our power to act as a role model for other companies.

In few words, a Responsible Adventure Travel Company is who we are!
