Since the Peak climbing is technically and physically very challenging activity, It requires considerable climbing skills and in Nepal usually is done on about 6000 meters high mountains, where acclimatization is easier and more effort can be devoted to climbing skill rather then shier brute force to combat altitude.
Nepal Mountaineering Association (NMA) has been given the authority to issue the permits for selected 27 peaks among them by the Mountaineering Section of the Ministry of Culture, Tourism and Civil Aviation (MoCTCA) through its resource members like Snowy Horizon Treks & Expedition (P.) Ltd.

Peak climbing in Nepal requires several considerations before one can embark on actual climbing activity. There are various rules and restrictions imposed by the government regulating peak climbing activities due to economic, safety, environmental and cultural concerns. Mountains are part of natural resource and most countries, even those wealthy with mineral resources derive fees and income from permits to climb special mountains like Denali in the USA or Aconcagua in Argentina. For Nepalese government fees are an important part of export income.
