KATHMANDU – A group of sixty Israeli trekkers has set off to the Annapurna Trail today.

The group which includes ten physically challenged trekkers, assisted by wheelchairs, arrived to Nepal this Wednesday with the goal to trek around Annapurna Trail. An EPSA Nepal (Disabled Centre Nepal) Representative also joined in the expedition together with her aide.

Ambassador of Israel to Nepal, Hanan Goder along with representatives from Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Ministry of Culture, Tourism and Civil Aviation and Nepal Tourism Board had welcomed the trekkers upon their arrival at the Tribhuvan International Airport.
