Trekking for Nepal

Print E-mail

nepal-trekk-join.jpgWAF was started by Ruler of Fujairah in 1987. It focuses on orphans and poor families. It has so far helped 30,000 families andwaf-1.jpg 25,000 students in the UAE. Now two women in the UAE intend to generate  funds for their FAMILY DEVELOPMENT PROJECT by trekking to Everest Base Camp and Limers can come along!

Join TFN on a trek of a lifetime - to Everest Base Camp. The 18-day trip is fairly strenuous, with 5-6 hours of challenging trekking each day. The rewards, however, are unrivalled. From the bazaars and shrines of Kathmandu to the bustling Sherpa capital of Namche Bazaar, and then on to the magnificent Thangboche Monastery, the scenery is achingly beautiful as the climb makes a steady ascent to the summit of Kala Patar, and the best views of Everest. From here you will get a 360˚ view of the very roof of the world, before the final push to the historic Everest Base Camp.  Visit the TFN website .


Trekkers will be expected to pay their own expenses (currently estimated at around Dhs.8000 ($2200) including trip and air fare from Sharjah) The trip has been organised to raise funds for two charities: the Welfare Association of Fujairah, UAE, which assists widows and destitute families with small business start-ups and retraining schemes, and the New Youth Orphanage in Kathmandu where we plan to fund a two year nutrition and medical programme directed by an English nurse, Ella Power.

Join us, sponsor us - or help us! Trekking For Nepal is looking for trekkers, volunteers, organisers, sponsors, venues, and fund raisers to make this project a success.
