Trekking activities around the Himalayas are also great learning and volunteering opportunities for high school and university students keen to travel abroad.
While students are involved in trekking trips, they will be not only trekking around the glorious Himalayas and surroundings but you will get to know different cultures, meet new people and broaden your experience that lasts for a lifetime. Teachers' and students' incorporation in these types of walking adventures are great learning with a fun opportunity which would be the perfect school, university tour, or volunteering programs in Himalayan country Nepal.
Hiking helps students build their interpersonal skills, leadership skills, and team-building skills which eventually assists in developing an attractive personality to stand out from the crowd. While interacting with local people, students not only get to know about their culture, lifestyle but they will understand the differences and accept the similarities between them. Similarly, while students join hiking activities, active participation in related volunteering programs plays an important role in bringing a positive impact on the life of local communities. Either it is a ‘plant a tree project or a ‘sanitation awareness’ program; students will be assisting in the well-being of local people and there is nothing great deeds than doing something better for others.
These involved students will also get the opportunity to experience adventurous activities like rafting, jungle safari, paragliding, and others which would be really fun and memorable holiday trip. Therefore it can be said that these types of treks and adventures will turn out to be life-changing experiences for them that would bring change in their perspective of looking at the whole world.
