Around
Dhulagiri Trek.
Around Dhulagiri Just west of Annapurna is the 40 mile
wide Dhaulagiri Himal. Dhaulagiri I, the sixth-tallest
peak in the world, towers high above the well-trekked
Muktinath pilgrim trail up the Kali Gandaki Valley. The
vast massif screens the hidden lands of Dolpo to its
north, and to the west of it are Nepal's far western
hills. Only to the east along the Kali Gandaki Valley
can we easily view the mountain close up, so massive
Dhaulagiri with its symmetrical peak and four major
outliners remains an enigma along much of its perimeter.
Like fabled but restricted Dolpo, the complete
month-long trek around Dhaulagiri is only for a handful
of trekkers. This is because much of the route traverses
difficult, remote country. We start our trek from Beni,
after long day drive from Kathmandu going through nice
village in the beginning and through high and remote
area of the glacier and passes later and finally come
down to Marpha where we meet the main trail of Annapurna
circuit or Kali Gandaki. Then, we join this trail and
make the trek through kali Gandaki valley and trek upto
Muktinath, the gateway of Mustang. As this is Nepal's
one of the most demanding trek and goes through glacier,
French pass and Thapa pass, only experience trekkers
should attempt this trek. |
