Dale Templar writes for The Daily Telegraph on why now is the time to return to Nepal

In September 2015 travel writer and television producer, Dale Templar, travelled to Nepal with Mountain Kingdoms, with the aim of revealing just how well the country is recovering since the earthquake in April 2015.
Dale followed our Gentle Trekking & Luxury Lodges, Annapurna Foothills itinerary, taking her from Kathmandu and along the scenic trails in the Annapurna region, whilst observing the condition of the trails and facilities en route.
Dale's full article about her trip to Nepal with Mountain Kingdoms and why Nepal needs us to return can be read online on The Daily Telegraph, published January 2016.
"If you’ve ever thought of going or revisiting the Himalayas, now is the time to go. This country needs you. Nepal is open for business. 'Namaste Nepal' – 'I salute the god within you.' " - Dale Templar
