Before You Go:

• No Experience Necessary: This tour is designed for complete beginners. The guides are certified to teach you everything from the ground up.

• Fitness Level: You don't need to be an athlete, but a basic level of fitness and mobility will greatly enhance your enjoyment. Be prepared to use your arms, legs, and core.

• Travel Insurance: While not always mandatory for short trips, it is highly recommended to have insurance that covers adventure sports and potential injury.

• Packing: Pack light! You only need a small bag. Focus on comfortable, flexible clothing. Avoid jeans.

Health & Safety on the Trip:

• Trust Your Guide: Listen carefully to all safety briefings and instructions. Your guide's primary concern is your safety. If they tell you not to do something, there is a good reason.

• Communicate: If you are tired, scared, or feel pain, tell your guide immediately. They can adjust the route, give you a rest, or provide alternative options. "I need a break" is a perfectly acceptable thing to say.

• Hydration is Key: Even though you're not trekking, climbing is physically demanding and the sun can be strong. Drink plenty of water throughout the day to avoid cramps and fatigue.

• Conquer Your Mind: Rock climbing is as much a mental challenge as a physical one. It's normal to feel a fear of heights. Focus on your immediate moves, trust your equipment, and don't look down until you're secure. Celebrate every small victory!

• Sun Protection: You will be out in the open. Use sunscreen, wear a hat, and use sunglasses when you are not actively climbing.

Culture & Etiquette:

• Respect the Environment: Bimal Nagar is a beautiful natural site. Follow the Leave No Trace principle. Carry out all your trash (including wrappers).

• Be a Positive Group Member: You will likely be climbing with a small group. Be encouraging to others, and be patient when waiting for your turn on a route.

• Tipping: While not obligatory, tipping your guide at the end of the tour is a standard and appreciated practice in Nepal if you are happy with their service.

Mindset & Expectations:

• Embrace the Challenge: You will be using muscles you didn't know you had. You will likely feel sore afterwards—this is normal and a sign of a great workout!

• It's Not a Race: Climb at your own pace. The goal is personal achievement, not speed. Everyone has different strengths.

• Enjoy the Journey: The experience is about more than just reaching the top of a route. It's about learning a new skill, overcoming fears, and enjoying the stunning scenery and camaraderie.
