Shopping for trekking gear in Thamel, Kathmandu, Nepal
Thinking of trekking in Nepal, the Himalayas or even to Mount Everest Base Camp? You’re going to need some trekking gear when you get here and there are hundreds of places to go shopping. But which shops to go to or choose?
I went shopping for a few bits of hiking equipment in Thamel, the trekking hotspot in Kathmandu. So allow me to take you with me to see what it’s like, what the trekking gear prices are and where to go for friendly service.
I also take you to a trekker’s pharmacy where I show you where to buy Altitude sickness tablets, antibiotics for food poisoning as well as water purification tablets.
BTW, I MADE THIS INCREDIBLE BIT OF GEAR
