Â
These terms govern your use of nepaltrailguide.com. By visiting or using this website, you agree to them. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.
We have tried to write these in plain language. If anything is unclear, feel free to contact us.
Â
1. About This Website
Nepal Trail Guide is an independent online publication that provides free information about trekking, tourism, destinations, wildlife, and travel in Nepal. We are based in Nepal and our content is intended for anyone who wants to explore Nepal — whether you are planning your first visit or your tenth.
Â
2. Using This Website
You are welcome to use this website for personal, non-commercial purposes. That means reading our guides, saving pages for reference, and sharing links with friends or on social media.
You may not do any of the following without our written permission:
- Copy, reproduce, or republish our articles, guides, or original content on another website or publication
- Scrape or automatically harvest content from the site
- Use our content to train AI models or machine learning systems
- Modify or create derivative works from our content
- Use our name, logo, or branding in a way that suggests affiliation or endorsement
Â
If you want to use our content for any purpose beyond personal use — for a blog, a publication, a course, or anything else — please ask first. We are generally open to reasonable requests.
Â
3. Intellectual Property
All original content on nepaltrailguide.com — including articles, guides, photographs taken by our team, graphics, and the site’s design — is owned by Nepal Trail Guide and protected by copyright.
Some content is licensed from third parties. Where this is the case, it is credited appropriately and is subject to the licensing terms of the original owner.
The Nepal Trail Guide name and logo are our trademarks. You may not use them without permission.
Â
4. User-Generated Content
If you leave a comment on our blog or submit content to us in any form, you grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide licence to publish and display that content on the site. You retain ownership of what you wrote.
By submitting content, you confirm that:
- It is your own original work
- It does not infringe the rights of anyone else
- It does not contain false, defamatory, or harmful statements
- It does not contain spam, advertisements, or irrelevant links
Â
We reserve the right to remove any comment or user submission that violates these terms, that we deem inappropriate, or simply that we do not want to publish. We do not have to explain why.
Â
5. Accuracy & Reliability
We work hard to keep information accurate and up to date, but we cannot guarantee it always will be. Conditions on the ground in Nepal — trail access, permit requirements, prices, transport schedules — change frequently.
Please do not rely solely on this website for safety-critical decisions. Cross-check important information with official sources, local trekking agencies, and current travel advisories. Our full disclaimer is available separately at nepaltrailguide.com/disclaimer.
Â
6. Links to Other Websites
We link to external websites that we think will be useful to our readers. We do not control those sites and we are not responsible for their content, privacy practices, or anything else. A link from us is not an endorsement.
Some links are affiliate links — meaning we earn a small commission if you make a purchase through them. This does not affect our editorial independence or the price you pay.
Â
7. Advertising
This site displays advertising through Google AdSense and may include sponsored content or paid placements from time to time. Where content is sponsored or paid, we will say so clearly. Advertising does not influence our editorial opinions or recommendations.
Â

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Nepal Trail Guide and its contributors are not liable for any loss, damage, injury, or expense — direct or indirect — that results from using this website or acting on information found here.
This includes but is not limited to: personal injury or death during a trek, financial loss from booking decisions, data loss from using the website, or any other consequence of relying on our content.
Your use of this site is entirely at your own risk.
Â
9. Privacy
Your privacy matters to us. How we collect, use, and protect your personal data is explained in full in our Privacy Policy at nepaltrailguide.com/privacy-policy. By using this site, you also agree to our Privacy Policy.
Â
10. Governing Law
These terms are governed by the laws of Nepal. Any disputes arising from your use of this website will be subject to the jurisdiction of the courts of Nepal.
