Nepal Trekking - Trekkers Information Management System in Nepal

Trekking through Nepal can be an exhilarating and unforgettable experience

, with its endless rolling hills and challenging mountain ranges. Enjoying the peacefulness of the landscapes and escaping the bustle of cities, are features that every trekker looks forward to and are some of the reasons that Nepal is seen as a trekking paradise. Unfortunately when disaster strikes, situations can change dramatically, and the Nepali government has been using the Trekkers Information Management System on a trial period to test its effectiveness in locating injured trekkers and being able to reach trekkers in trouble as soon as possible.

Over the last two years the Trekkers Information Management System has proven to be vital in the rescue of trekkers, and together with the support of the Trekking Agencies' Association of Nepal, and the Nepal Tourism Board, the Trekkers Information Management System will now become a mandatory trekking feature. A small fee per trekking route will be implemented in obtaining a Trekkers Information Management System (TIMS) card, which will contribute to a number of trekking related services and assist in eradicating unauthorized trekking.

Where & how to obtain TIMS Card ?

The visiting tourists, who are interested to general trekking areas of Nepal, are required to receive TIMS Card through any one of the following:
