24 days Dolpo - Shey Gompa, Grade:
Moderate / demanding
In the far reaches of
Northwestern Nepal lies the extreme landscape of Upper Dolpo. The
route begins by meandering through pine and cedar forest with views
of the massive Dhaualgiri range in the background. The entrance to Dolpo lies
beyond the Jangla Bhanjyang Pass, (4500m). At the head of the valley lay
snow-capped peaks and the desolate Tibetan plateau beyond. Protected from rain, this region
is dry where the Dolpo inhabitants have carved out a niche of
survival in the harsh surroundings by trading with nearby
Tibet. A vision of beauty,
the Phokshindo (Ringmo) and the legendary monastery of the
pre-Buddhist Bonpo sect is our momentous destination. As the most remote and least
developed district in Nepal, this trek is reserved for those with a
true sense of adventure.
