FAQs: Splitboarding in Nepal
What should I know about Splitboarding Nepal?
While Nepal is mostly known for Mt Everest and its epic treks, splitboarding here is a great way to see the country during a different season.
Roughly one million tourists visit Nepal each year, but far fewer come in the winter. This means you’ll be able to enjoy more of the back country to yourself as well as get the chance to see the capital, Kathmandu, without the crowds.
Once you head out into the backcountry, splitboarding gives you the opportunity to climb in skins up to smaller peaks and higher mountains slopes then the freedom to snowboard back down, once you have combined the pieces of the board.
