In a context of growing population and of rapid infrastructure development, we intend to examine the natural hazards that characterize the mountains of Central Nepal (Kali Gandaki corridor; Pokhara valley; Langtang valley). Our study can provide a real prospect for better quality designs (including bio-engineering) and for an effective early warning system, to reduce damages to infrastructure and settlements, and indirectly to traffic and trade across the country.
