Trekking - Rolwaling Himal
Trekking duration: 18-22 days
Starting from: Barabise
Ending at: Moderate
Most Attraction of the trek:
Off touristy trekking route and authentic Nepalis life style. Newly embarked by Mountain Club.
Buried between steep ice giants, the Rolwaling Valley is reputed to be the home of the infamous Yeti. We approach the valley through the charming terraced foothills of Tamang and Chetri villages. Once beneath the sacred Gauri Shankar we climb through primeval forests to the Tsho Rolpa Lake. The northern flank of Pachermo, which rises above us, provides the route over the Tashi Labtsa (5755m) into the Everest region.
Highlights:
Unspoilt mountain scenery, one of Nepals highest passes, spectacular views of Cho-Oyu, Everest, Nuptse and Makalu.
Rolwaling Valley is the east-west valley below Mt. Gaurishankar (7145m) and just south from the Tibetan boarder. This is totally isolated and culturally diverse area. This is a restricted area but trekking trip can be taken to the area obtaining a climbing permit for one of the trekking peak of this area such as for Ramdung peak. The area is just south from the Tibetan boarder so it is more like Tibetan culture are here. The area contain of cultural and isolated village, glacier lakes and so on.
