Welcome to The Nepal, an authentic travel resource created to help you navigate the magic of the Himalayas through the eyes of someone who calls this land home.
Meet the Founder: Madan KC
Namaste! I am Madan KC, the founder and lead editor of thenepal.io.
I was born and raised in the diverse landscapes of Nepal. While many travel websites are written by people who visit for a week and leave, I have spent 10 years exploring my own backyard—from the bustling streets of Kathmandu to the silent, high-altitude trails of the Annapurna and Everest regions.
My mission is simple: To bridge the gap between “tourist traps” and the “real Nepal.”
Why Trust Our Guides?
In a world of AI-generated content and generic travel blogs, The Nepal stands out because of First-Hand Experience.
- Local Roots: As a Nepali local, I understand the culture, the language, and the hidden rules that make traveling here easier for you.
- On-the-Ground Research: Every guide you read—whether it’s about the Best Food in Pokhara or Hidden Gems—is based on actual visits and local knowledge.
- Updated for 2025: We constantly monitor local transportation prices, permit rules, and seasonal changes to ensure you have the most accurate information.
What We Stand For
- Responsible Tourism: We believe in traveling in a way that respects our environment and directly supports local Nepali communities.
- Accuracy over Hype: If a trail is too difficult or a restaurant is overrated, we will tell you the truth.
- Cultural Connection: We don’t just show you where to go; we explain the why behind our traditions and festivals.
Our Commitment to Quality
Our content follows strict editorial standards. We do not accept payment for “positive reviews.” If we recommend a hotel in Pokhara or a guide in Ghandruk, it’s because we truly believe they offer the best experience for our readers.

I love hearing from fellow travelers. Whether you have a question about your upcoming trek or just want to say Namaste, feel free to reach out.
