Our Story
The Lapsi Tree was born from a 20-year commitment to community development in Nepal. Founded by the Himalayan Volunteerism group, the resort was created to provide a welcoming space for international volunteers engaged in education, women's empowerment, and agricultural projects. We're more than just a resort; Guests are treated like family, immersed in Nepali culture through cooking classes, village visits, and interactions with locals – a true highlight of the Laspi Tree.
