This, commonly known as 'The Himalayan Musk Rose' is certainly the likely 
candidate.Though one must be aware just how variable this species is.  I don't 
think there are anyother roses known from the region it is likely to be 
confused with (when in the wild). Variousforms of this rose are cultivated in 
the UK.
This is the ONLY Rose mentioned in Flora of Kathmandu Valley - known as 
'Bhainsi kanda'.The author says this flowers in April (which seems quite early 
to me); the specimen shown wasphotographed in May.
Recorded from 1600- 2100m.  Hips described as globose & red (but shape varies a 
good deal onthe specimens of what I understand to be this rose).
Enumeration of Flowering Plants of Nepal says 1500-2400m (Kashmir to Bhutan, 
Assam, Burma & W.China).
This also says that the following roses as cultivated in Nepal: R.banksiae, 
R.chinensis & R.moschata - that isin addition to non-native species 
R.laevigata, R.multiflora - both natives of China, often cultivated.
