Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The damage is severely disrupting the Manaslu trekking season, which relies on tourism income. The destruction of hotels and the loss of access roads and bridges mean that businesses are facing major losses. The flood has cut off northern Gorkha’s lifeline, affecting approximately 1,000 people on either side of the river.

Flash floods swept through communities in Nepal, including Gorkha District, where homes and bridges were swept away on October 1, 2026.
