Trekking is an amazing experience one can have. People love to trek for several reasons and each reason is amazing. Some love to enjoy nature, some love the peaceful time away from the city they have, some are involved in the tourism business and do it for making vlogs and other activities. Whatever may be the reason trekking can be described in one word which is outstanding. People more than ever are inclined to do activities such as trekking and hiking.
Nepal is incredibly famous for its many trekking routes and hiking places. The small country is known for its amazing climate and beautiful remote locations which are perfect for long as well as short trekking. There are many trekking routes among which Annapurna trekking route, Everest trekking route, Manaslu circuit trek are the most famous.
While these may be the most popular trekking routes, they are not the only beautiful ones here. There are many but they are not as popular as these. However, in recent times people are exploring other trekking routes which are not as popular. Among the many trekking routes, Bhairab Kunda trekking is recently gaining much popularity.
Nepal is a country that is in South Asia. The country is landlocked and lies between India and China. China lies at the northern border while the other three sides are covered by India. The country is incredibly beautiful and people from foreign countries also love to visit the country. But Why Nepal and why the travelers love Nepal so much?
Now, there is no definite answer to this question as there can be many answers. As people have various needs and preferences to travel to a certain destination there also may be several reasons to visit the country. There are many reasons but the mountains, forests, water sources, and the culture of the country still comes to the top. The mountains here are astonishing and extremely beautiful.
To the mountaineers, Nepal is also known as the land of the mountains as the eight of the top 10 mountains in the world lie in Nepal. It is something to have so many of the highest peaks in the world to be in your territory and Nepal can proudly say it has. Also, the culture of Nepal is much talked about and is the topic of interest to many people especially those who study cultures. Nepal was a Hindu country till the early 2000s. However, a significant amount of people following other religions also live here. After Hinduism major of the people follows Buddhism here.
These two religions of Nepal are so integrated within each other that there are certain locations where the people of both religions worship at the same place and same god. This is rarely seen in any other place in the world.
Nepal also has unique topography the highest point in Nepal is 8849m from the sea level whereas the lowest point in Nepal is 60m from the sea level. All these variations on only just 200KM breadth. Nepal is divided into three regions along with the breadth of its territory, Mountain, Hilly, and Terai. Amazingly, Nepal has so many different regions in the small area it has got.
Nepal has many mountains in its territory. While the mountains give the locals many challenges and create unfavorable conditions it also gives many things. The first thing mountains give is their unmeasurable beauty. The white peaks with nature are something else to see. This also gives that region the chance to get involved in tourism and other such activities. The people of these regions are doing that.
The presence of mountains creates many trekking routes in the country and Nepal has many. There are so many that even the possible trekking routes that lead to magnificent destinations are not being able to be made. There is just so much area of the country and so many routes that are not getting the amount of exposure they deserve. They have everything and provide every element that makes it the ideal trekking experience but due to some factors have not been able to do so.
This has been happening till now, but the times are changing, and people are giving chances to such trekking routes and places. People are more inclined to visit places which are new and bear amazing possibilities. One of those is Bhairab Kunda trekking. In the past Bhairab Kunda trekking was not so famous. However, due to the use of social media, energetic youths, and this age of travel Bhairab Kunda trekking is gaining the attention it deserves. To tell the truth Bhairab Kunda trekking has still not gained the amount of exposure it deserves but it is so much better than it was in the past.
Bhairab Kunda is the main destination of Bhairab Kunda trekking. Bhairab Kunda is located Northeast of Kathmandu valley. It is near to another popular trekking destination that has been gaining immense exposure recently Paanch pokhari. Bhairab Kunda is in the deep mountains that lie near the Nepal and Tibet border. While going on Bhairab Kunda trekking one can see that the people of the surrounding area reflect the culture of both the Nepal and Tibet region as it lies in the border of these places.
Bhairab Kunda is one of the Holy kundas of Nepal. The name itself suggests how holy it is. Bhairab is one of the incarnations of Lord Shiva, in his angry form. He is also the god of Tantra.
Yearly on Bhadra Purnima people visit this place and offer their worship. Hindu, Buddhists, and saints all visit this Kunda for religious purposes. One is the religious perception for Bhairab Kunda trekking while another is the tourism perspective looking at the beautiful peaks and get the mesmerizing view of the lake.
