Trekking » Kanchenjunga Trekking in Nepal


Trekking in Kanchenjunga Region of Nepal

Passing through the remote and unspoiled far eastern part of Nepal, this classic trek to Kanchenjunga, the third highest peak in the world, provides an incredible variety of scenery and cultural diversity. Starting from the low valleys of eastern Nepal, the route passes trough cultivated farmland and villages and leads along rivers and through picturesque landscape. Higher up, Tibetan villages with wooden houses, prayer flags and mani stone are encountered. On the way, there are stunning views of Jannu. Then Pang Pema, the base camp of Kanchenjunga, is reached, surrounded by an incredible array of high peaks. The formidable north face of Kanchenjunga is revealed, and walks up the glacier offer fascinating close-up views. This is one of the most beautiful treks in the Himalaya.

 

Kanchenjunga South Base Camp (16 days ktm/ktm)

Of all the world's great peaks, Kanchenjunga (sacred house of the gems) at 8586 m. is the third highest mountain in the world. It sits loftily on the Nepal/Sikkim border in the east and south of Tibet border.

This route was opened to the trekkers in 1988. This great peak is the Eastern Corner Stone of the Nepalese Himalayas, watershed of the Tamur Koshi River. This area although with a vast range of elevations and temperatures, has fairly easy access and is in fact topographically hospitable. In fact, this is 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.
It is the last camp before the south face situated less than 5000 m. offers a glorious panorama from the crest of moraines. You come back by the village of Ghunsa, built with wooden house where the Tibetans have been living for the past 30 years.
