Beauty, strength and a hidden way of life have established the legendary aura of the snow leopard in the Himalayas. A myth, which became famous in the so-called “western” countries only with a book: In his world bestseller “On the Tracks of the Snow Leopard,” American author Peter Matthiessen describes a zoological expedition through unknown western Nepal, with the goal of observing the snow leopard in the wild for the first time. He accompanies the famous zoologist George Schaller on the ultimately futile search, for the snow leopard turns out to be a master of camouflage, of merging with the landscape. Ghostly, elegant and always one step ahead. What Matthiessen finds, however, are the limits of his own ego. For this expedition into the highlands on the Tibetan border becomes for him a “pilgrimage of the heart,” in which he discovers a world in which dramatic forces of nature and the mysticism of Tibetan monks combine to create a reality in which the everyday life left behind becomes unreal and the unreal becomes familiar.\u00a0<\/p>\n

While four out of five big cat species (tiger, lion, leopard and jaguar) find their constantly shrinking habitat in forests and savannahs, that of the snow leopard spreads over a huge area of all the high mountains of Central Asia. From the vast steppes of Mongolia to subtropical Bhutan. And in the midst of these sheer endless expanses of rugged mountain ranges and plateaus, just 4,000 – 6,000 individuals of this so fascinating big cat are found. No wonder why the snow leopard can be observed so rarely in the wild. And unfortunately also with a reason, why it is acutely endangered in this thinned out habitat in its existence. Which in turn is a mandate for all of us to make a contribution so that another magnificent creature is not irretrievably lost on our planet.<\/p>\n

The snow leopard. A symbol of the mystique of the wilderness. Noticeable but usually not visible. So the hike on the tracks of the snow leopard – “in the presence of the miraculous” – opens you a profound and almost spiritual access to the wilderness. And thus serves the search for oneself and one’s own origins.<\/p>\n

\u201eThe first encounter with two snow leopards in the wild was fateful for me. Since then, I have dedicated a large part of my life to the study and protection of this big cat so shrouded in mystery. Living in Manang, in the middle of the mountains of the Annapurna Himal, I am able to spend more than 200 days a year tracking the snow leopard.<\/p>\n

In addition to watching him, I set camera traps, assist scientists in field work, help farmers and herders protect herds, and oversee the “Snow Leopard Scout Program” at the Manang school. And I am especially happy to be able to show the guests of Fair Trails\u00ae the world of the snow leopard.\u201c<\/p>\n

It is thanks to the initiative of leading snow leopard expert Dr. Rodney Jackson that we were introduced to Tashi R. Ghale. Infected by Tashi’s enthusiasm and expertise, we henceforth collaborated with him on the Snow Leopard Trail program. And so today the Snow Leopard Trail combines unique nature experiences in the Himalayas with a concrete contribution to the protection of the snow leopard.\u201c<\/p>\n

\u201eI come from the small Sherpa village of Chaurikharka in the Khumbu (Everest region), where the snow leopard has always been part of the culture and daily life of the Sherpas. On the one hand as a mythical creature and on the other hand as a threat to our farm animals on the alpine pastures.<\/p>\n

Although I have been a trekking guide for almost two decades now, I never had the opportunity to get closer to this wonderful animal. That’s why I’m grateful to Fair Trails\u00ae for allowing me to be a part of the very first exploration trip for the Snow Leopard Trail in 2018. And am excited to be able to lead treks on the Snow Leopard Trail in the future.\u201c<\/span><\/p>\n
