Spark Adventure 2023 begins

Kathmandu, Sept. 29

The Spark Adventure 2023 has officially begun, with over 200 enthusiastic participants embarking on an exciting expedition to Sailung, a tourist destination in Dolakha district. The event, organised by Spark Cars, the adventure commenced at Mirabel Resort in Dhulikhel on  Thursday.

Sailung, often referred to as the confluence of numerous small hillocks, holds both religious significance and the distinction of being a prime 'hill station' with its vast expanse of snow-capped peaks. The organisers emphasise that Sailung epitomizes a harmonious fusion of nature and environment, rendering it an irresistible destination for avid tourism enthusiasts.

Padam Parajuli, General Manager of Spark Group, underscored the need to draw attention to Sailung, which, despite its immense potential, remains relatively undiscovered.

The theme of this adventure is 'Wild Stay with Chaunri (yak),' focusing on the lives of local yaks and their herders.

The event is attended by Captain Bijay Lama, actor Nikhil Upreti, singer Yash Kumar, comedian Sandeep Chhetri, and other renowned artists like including folk singer Prem Raja Mahat, artiste Garima Sharma, writers Buddhi Sagar and Dr. Ranjit Baral, comedian Kailash Karki, traveller Srijana Sijju, artiste Swanika Bastola.

The three-day event is being organised from September 28 to 30.

This is the second edition of Spark Adventure, following last year's successful honey-hunting expedition in Bhujung of Lamjung district.
