8K Spring Expeditions updates:


8K welcomes everyone to Nepal this spring season 2022. We are all geared up for the upcoming big adventures to some of the 8000m peaks in Nepal. With the ease of border measures in Nepal, more travelers are slowly entering Nepal for tourism after the long 2years of Covid19 pandemic which affected the whole Tourism Industry in Nepal and around the world. We look forward to seeing more travelers coming to Nepal from here on.

Sagarmatha (Everest) 8848.86m and a total of 869 permits issued in total with regards to other various peaks like Mt. Annapurna, Mt. Dhaulagiri, Mt. Kanchenjunga etc. as of 13 April 2022.
