About Owner

Ram Humagain started as a tourist guide for foreigners that were coming through his village in the 70’s. It has been more than 25 years since he had taken first step in Tourism Industry. Obviously interested and curious by nature, he would take them on trekking routes through his native mountains. Intelligent enough to actually pick up a host of languages – including very fluent German, he went on to work in a trekking agency. He made his money through the agency and the first thing he did was to buy the land to build his resort on. Knowing that where tourism goes, infrastructure follows – he firmly believes that Balthali Village Resort will positively be able to help the plight of the till now ignored villages in the area. Therefore we can say that Mr Ram Prasad Humagain has tried to give a new tourism destination to the tourism industry of Nepal. He is also the active member of Rotary Club of Dillibazar, Kathmandu, Nepal.
