If you're in search of a full day trip out of Kathmandu with some sport climbing on limestone crags, Hattiban is the spot for you.
You can even stay at a nearby monastery and develop some meditative abilities. It'll be a really fun and exciting day. Not only because you'll improve your climbing skills but also because you'll learn a lot about Nepalese culture.
Hattiban is a climbing site 15 km southwest of Kathmandu. It's specially ideal for professional climbers looking for some top level grades climbs. There are 8 different routes in Hattiban, all of them really well bolted.
You will not have to worry about anything regarding this day trip. I will provide the travel arrangements, box lunch, climbing gear and of course, professional IFMGA guiding service.
As for the itinerary, we will start from Bulku and have a bus ride for a half hour until we arrive at Dollu. We'll get off the bus in an area called Parphing. You will find the Hattiban rock climbing site above the monasteries on their north ridge.
This rock climbing trip is available all year round except during the monsoon season (June, July and August). I also offer many other similar programs during this period. You can check out this 2-day rock climbing tour in Bimal Nagar. Another amazing Nepalese spot.

Mountain Guide
Hi! I'm Tshering, IFMGA/NNMGA certified mountain guide. I work together with a team of certified and professional mountain and trekking guides. If I'm not available to guide you, one of my colleagues will take great care of you.
I have been climbing since 1996, starting on the 8000m mountains in the Himalaya. I'm one of the few IFMGA/NNMGA certified mountain guides (Instructor) from south Asia, gaining my qualification from the New Zealand Mountain Guides Association (NZMGA) & Nepal National Mountain Guide Association (NNMGA).
I have successfully guided on Mt Everest on multiple occasions, and other 8000m peaks such as Mt Cho-oyu (8,201m) (3 times), Sisha Pangma (8,013m), Mt. Manaslu (8,163m), Mt. Dhaulagiri (8,167m), Mt. Makalu (8,463m), Mt. Lhotse (8,515m) and many more.
I have have also a strong international climbing experience and extensive knowledge of the logistics, planning and group dynamic that are also very crucial to successfully lead adventures in the Himalaya and around the world. I guided in New Zealand, Norway, France, Scotland, Thailand, Bhutan, Pakistan, India and Tibet. I'm also a rescue expert and a technical trainer for the mountain guides training.
I very much like guiding my clients in remote places, where no tourist goes. I like also discovering new routes and peaks. Please have a look to the different trekking and mountaineering expeditions I propose and contact me if you want to discuss about them. I can of course also guide you in more 'classic' routes, just get in touch with me and let's talk about your wishes!
