Honey Hunting in Nepal | Mad Honey Hunters | Hallucinogen Honey | Sikles | Yayavar | Trailer

Honey hunting in Nepal is a traditional practice that has been carried out by indigenous communities for centuries. The honey hunters, also known as "Gurung honey hunters," are skilled individuals who harvest honey from wild beehives located high up on cliffs.
The honey hunting season in Nepal typically takes place twice a year, in the spring and autumn, when the bees are most active. The honey hunters use ladders, ropes, and traditional tools to access the beehives. They carefully extract the honeycombs without harming the bees or destroying the hives, using their knowledge and experience passed down through generations.
The honey collected during these hunts is usually the highly valued and rare red honey, also known as "mad honey" or "hallucinogenic honey." It is so named because it contains a substance called grayanotoxin, which can have hallucinogenic effects when consumed in large quantities. The red honey has medicinal and cultural significance and is used for various purposes, including traditional medicine and religious ceremonies.
Honey hunting is not only a means of gathering honey but also an important cultural practice for the indigenous communities of Nepal. It requires great skill, bravery, and a deep understanding of the bees and their behavior. However, it is also a dangerous activity, as the hunters often have to climb steep cliffs or tall trees, putting themselves at risk.
In recent years, there have been efforts to promote sustainable honey hunting practices in Nepal, ensuring the conservation of bees and their habitats. Conservation organizations and local communities are working together to preserve this ancient tradition while ensuring the protection of the environment and the well-being of the honey hunters.
