Annapurna Base Camp

Posted on by fnclick

The Annapurna trek is famous for trekkers. The principal peaks of the western portion of the great Annapurna Himal, including Hiunchuli, Annapurna South, Fang, Annapurna, Ganagapurna, Annapurna 3, and Machhapuchhare, are arranged almost precisely in a circle about 10 miles in diameter with a deep glacier-covered amphitheater at the center.

From this glacier basin, known as the Annapurna Sanctuary, the Modi Khola knifes its way south in a narrow gorge fully 3660m deep. Further south, the gorge opens up into a wide and fertile valley, the domain of the Gurungs. The middle and upper portions of Modi Khola offer some of the best short trekking routes in Nepal, and the valley is located so that these treks can be easily combined with treks into the Kali Gandaki region to the west.

Rara Lake lies in the remoteness of far northwest Nepal. The lake is beautiful and tranquil. The region around Jumla and Rara Lake is still unexplored. Our trek starts from Jumla, the largest upland hill town in west Nepal. Rara is Nepal’s largest lake and lies at an altitude of 2,980 m.
An outstanding snow-capped panorama of Dolpo and Tibetan mountains beautifully overshadows the scene across the deep clear waters of the lake.

Jumla Dunai (Dolpo)

Posted on by fnclick
Dolpo is a remote region of Nepal, protected by the Shey Phoksumdo National Park. The Dollop region has been bypassed by development and, until recently, by tourism. Because the district was closed to foreigners until 1989, only a few anthropologists and geographers explored it.
 
Even today it receives only a few visitors. But, one can explore parts starting from Jamal, one of the world’s highest rice-growing areas in the world. It goes through the Tila valley with its unique red rice until we reach Duane. This trek can be extended on request with 5 days to Phoksumdo Lake, entering the inner parts of Dollop and views over the deepest lake of Nepal.

Upper Dolpo

Posted on by fnclick
This trek takes place in the northwest region of Nepal. Dolpo lies in the Phoksundo National park of mid-western Nepal. Behind the Dhaulagiri massif and towards the Tibetan plateau. The area is cut off by a series of very high passes and closed by the snow all around the year.
As it is one of the remotest and least exposed areas of Nepal, it offers rare opportunities to explore the near-virgin territory and meet people. It is all isolated by the difficult topography, almost unexposed to tourism. Because Dolpo is so close to Tibet’s border, people of Tibetan origin inhabit it. The trek provides chances to visit several unique monasteries (gompas).

Makalu Base Camp

Posted on by fnclick
Formerly a restricted area, Makalu spans five major ecological zones in Nepal. It embraces the lush, tropical Arun Valley, dense forests of rhododendron, fir, and alpine meadows that lead to the mighty Barun glacier. From the base camp, you can view the spectacular Mt. Makalu too.
 
This low-altitude trek is centered on the Arun Valley. The base of the sub-tropical valley of the Arun River is in places forested, contrasting with the terraced slopes higher up. They are farmed by villagers of diverse tribal groups. The top slopes are marked by high fields, which border the Makalu-Barun National Park, an important conservation area. These areas consist of many threatened species.

Kanchanjunga South Base Camp

Posted on by fnclick
Kanchanjunga (8598m) is on the border between Nepal and the Indian state of Sikkim. The Kanchanjunga is the world’s third-highest mountain. It was first conquered in 1956. This region is home to the Limbus, who are relatives of the Rais. They are thought to have ruled the Kathmandu valley from the 7th century BC until around 300 AD.
 
They then moved into the steep hill country of eastern Nepal, from the Arun valley to the Sikkim border. They still remain there. They are easily distinguishable by their Mongolian features. Many of the men still carry a large kukri (traditional curved knife) tucked into their belts and wear a Dhaka topi (Nepali hat).
 
Many people might not be aware of this. But the drink named Tongba, which we all love to taste is the contribution of Limbu culture. A wooden pot is filled with fermented seeds and boiling water. You drink the potent mixture through a bamboo straw, with tiny filters to keep the seeds out.

Langtang Valley

Posted on by fnclick
A trek to Langtang valley starts with an overland journey to Syabrubesi, a small string of shops and hotels. Langtang is a narrow valley that lies just south of the Tibetan border. It is sandwiched between the Himalayan range to the north and a slightly lower range of peaks to the south.
This area was designated Nepal’s first Himalayan national park in 1971. This high and isolated region is inhabited by the Tamangs, whose religious practices, language, and dress are more similar to those of Tibet than to the traditions of their cousins in the middle hills. According to a legend, a lama following a runaway yak discovered the valley. Hence the name – lang means yak, and Teng means to follow in the Tibetan language.
 
Though the area is relatively close to Kathmandu, the region sees far fewer trekkers than Everest and Annapurna. This trek is easily combined with the Gosainkunda Trek.
 
NOTE Due to the rough nature of the road and the 6+ hour transfer each way we recommend a 4WD transport to and from Syabrubesi. The cost for a 4WD vehicle is approximately US$200 each way which can be shared with up to 5 persons.
 
Highlights Alpine scenery, a chance to mix with the Tamang people.
 
Trek dates from September to late December and February to late June
