Simbuwa Khola

Vein of Life and Beauty.
The Simbuwa Khola River, one of Nepal's most important rivers, is a vital element for the local community, providing water for drinking, irrigation and daily needs. The surrounding landscape is breathtaking, with lush forests and spectacular views, making it a favourite destination for nature lovers and trekkers.

The rich history and traditions of the area are deeply linked to the river, which has played a central role in the lives of its inhabitants for centuries. Simbuwa Khola is home to an impressive biodiversity, with an abundance of fish and aquatic life, while the forests on its banks are a haven for many species of wildlife.

Despite its natural beauty and importance, the river faces challenges such as overexploitation of its resources and climate change. Its protection is critical for both the local community and the ecosystem that depends on it.
