Call to open restricted trekking areas
Tourism entrepreneurs urged the government to amend the four decade old restrictions on trekking routes.
There are a number of trekking routes like Upper Mustang, Upper Dolpo, Lower Doplo, Manasulu and Rara lake trekking routes that are restricted areas. “The government should either declare the region as normal or reduce the royalty charged to the trekkers,” said a member of aviation and tourism department of Nepal Tourism Board (NTB) Rajendra Bajagain.
