  abstract = {{T}he tourist system which started to grow up around trekking in the {H}imalayan region of {N}epal in the 1970s and 1980s is now changing due to growing demand, and a greater diversity of customers and practices. {F}irstly, these developments are described in two different sectors (the south side of the {A}nnapurna massif and {H}elambu) which have received large numbers of visitors for many years and are both located close to two of the country's cities ({K}athmandu and {P}okhara), with improved links via new roads providing better access to mountain valleys. {B}ased on interviews and observation in the field, this research then focuses in particular on the recent and little-documented surge in domestic tourism which can also be observed in these mountain areas. {I}n the absence of statistical data, it attempts to assess the scope of this tourism, to define its practices, and to present some initial findings on the cultural representations of mountains and the mountain recreational activities underpinning this domestic tourism.},
