Nepal – Country of Rapid Change | VAUDE



Geographer and mountain climber Hannes takes you on a journey through Nepal, sharing his experience with the project "Trail of Change". Follow Hannes through landscapes of unbelievable dimensions, exploring snowy paths high in the mountains, dry deserts, and vivid jungles. Trekking through the diverse country, he chats with locals – from yak shepherds to tourism workers – getting to know their stories and the many changes that they have experienced. He finds that not only climate change is omnipresent -

what with retreating glaciers and extreme weather conditions - but that the landscape's appearance is changing as well. Power stations and roads are being built, changing the face of the beautiful country, providing challenges, but also chances for its people.
