Nepal has closed all of its Himalayan peaks including Mount Everest this climbing season because of fears of the coronavirus outbreak, a government minister said on Friday.

Nepal, home to eight of the world’s 14 highest mountains including Mount Everest, gets more than four million dollars in permit fees for the world’s highest peak and other mountains every year.

Tourism minister Yogesh Bhattarai said expeditions to all peaks in the March-May spring season had been suspended.

 

“Climbing this season has been closed,” Bhattarai told Reuters.

“It is as a precaution for that,” he added, when asked it its was because of the coronavirus.

Nepal has confirmed just one case of the coronavirus – a student studying in China on a trip home – out of 450 people tested.
