Nepal Flood 2026 relief program


Flood hit Nuwakot region of Nepal

 

Relief Program for the August 26th 2026 Floods in Nepal

Since the founding of Trek Around Nepal we have done our best to support the local economy. We support local businesses, guest houses, guides, porters and local community groups.

When the flood hit our first priority was to our clients out trekking at the time. We established contact with our guides through radio, mobile and personal contacts. All our clients, guides, and porters returned safely.

We then worked international and national partners to organize a fast, direct, and much needed flood relief program to the devastated Nuwakot region of Nepal. Here we witnessed the catastrophic flood damage up close. Residents who had lost family members, friends, and their homes took shelter in local schools which we visited personally with clothing for over 1,200 people and a medical clinic.

 

Our long-term humanitarian projects

For many years we have worked with medical teams delivering aid to families in rural districts including the 2015 Earthquake. This is part of our own personal project to give back to the communities we are a part of.

When the flood hit these communities were devastated. Areas in Nuwakot, Dhading, and Rasuwa were wiped out.

With Narayan Bhandari working with Global Nutrition Empowerment (GNE) to provide aid delivery to these areas. With Nawaraj Bhandari working with Ujeli Health Care volunteers to set up a day clinic. Our experienced volunteer teams in two jeeps with the help of Captain Dam Bahadur Garbuja Pun were able to help get aid directly to the survivors temporarily housed in a school compound in Nuwakot.

Our medical volunteers have helped treat and assess survivors, some of whom will need further surgery or treatment in Kathmandu.

Our future goals

With the completion of this relief program we continue to assess new options for aid, education, supplies and skills to the communities devastated by the flood.

We are open and continue to provide trekking services throughout the Annapurna range and to Everest Base Camp. However we also continue to support local communities throughout Nepal as part of our personal “Give Back” initiative.

We never ask clients to donate nor do we give tours to areas in need. This is our own personal project.

If you trek with us we are a happy to explain how life is here in Nepal as we explore our fantastic country together. We are a trekking company of the community and for the community.

We hope that together, we can all make a difference.
