its perfectly safe unless i’m unaware of some conflict going on. the only reason i would reconsider (that i can think of at the moment) going to nepal would be the cold. good luck deciding.

It is perfectly safe in the Katmandu valley. If you want to go outside the valley, you should check with a local or guide who knows where is safe and where isn’t. This is a great time of year to go…check out Nagarkot, which is on top of the East mountains surrounding the valley. There are beatiful hotels up there with a perfect view of the himalayan range. In the summer they are covered by thick clouds, but this time of year it is crystal clear.

Had been advised against it two months ago by the local Police Sup, but the situations seems to have improved now. It’s about as safe as it always is… the time before last I went there we got held in a village by Maoist rebels, and had to be escorted back to India by Black Cat Commandos. But then, that’s what made that trip the experience of a lifetime. Fret not, enjoy Nepal… it’s a beautiful country with great people. Would advise a trek on the Annapurna Base Camp circuit and more time in Pokhra than Kathmandu.
