Kanchenjunga Explore Trek |
Of all the world's great peaks, Kanchenjunga is perhaps
the least known; the third highest in the world at
8,598m, It sits astride the Nepal/Sikkim border only a
few miles from Tibet. This route was opened to the
trekkers in 1988, though people have trekked in the area
in connection with mountaineering expedition since the
turn of the century. Our long trek here climbs from the
intensively cultivated hillsides of the Nepal |

Midlands,
populated by the Rai and Limbu tribes, towards the peaks of Jannu
and Khabru and the great wall of Kumbakarna, Kanchenjunga and
Rathong, passing on the way through some of the finest high mountain
scenery anywhere. Until very recently this was a restricted area, so
this is an ideal trek for those who already know Nepal and want to
get away from the better known areas and visit a remoter part where
few foreigners have penetrated.
We fly from Kathmandu to Suketar and trek to Chhirwa on the same
day. The trek begins with our first camp at Chhirwa then trek
through Gunsa, and ascend to the higher camp at Pang Pema (5120m)
and camp at Lhonak. The return trek will assend Miring La pass and
to Oktang the south Base camp of Kanchenjunga and continue down to
Suketar via Tseram and Chittre. |
