Trekking (Camping).
Kanchenjunga Trek.
Nepal Kangchenjunga trekking offers you great
opportunity to have unique experience of your life time.
Kangchenjunga is the third highest mountain in the world
and the second highest in Nepal. Kanchenjunga is
translated along the lines of "Five Treasures of the
Snow" and the main peak is 8586m high. The recently
opened Kanchenjanga region offers the keen walkers the
chance to explore a totally unspoilt upland wilderness,
which offers a most beautiful and contrasting variety of
scenery. Lush farmland and wooded valleys give way,
higher up, to breathtaking mountain scenery, which
includes close-up views of Kanchenjanga and also distant
panoramas of the mountains of the Khumbu.
A journey to this area is a special treat- starting from
the tropical lowlands through great rhododendron forests
and lovely villages of east Nepal upto the glacier and
overwhelming views. A trek to the south and north faces
of the world's third highest peak offers fantastic
mountain views, including Everest. It provides you with
an adventure, which will stay forever. One of the most
remote and beautiful areas in Nepal, which, unused to
foreign visitors, still lies shrouded in mystery. The
features of the walk in are pleasant villages with
different ethic groups then in the high regions,
glorious mountains and abundant wildlife.
The trails climb from 1200 meters (4,000ft) to 5180
meters (17,094ft) above sea level.
Kanchenjunga
Trekking Itinerary
Day 1: Arrival in
Kathmandu airport (1345 meters).
There you will be met by our Airport Representative and
transferred to hotel by private tourist vehicle.
Overnight at hotel.
Day 2: Sightseeing around Kathmandu valley.
Your sightseeing trip will start at 9AM in the morning
after your breakfast. We will provide a private vehicle
and professional tour guide. Places we visit are
Pasupatinath temple, Buddhanath, Monkey temple, Bhaktpur
durbar square and Kathmandu durbar square. The afternoon
includes a final briefing and preparations for the trek.
Overnight at hotel.
Day 3: Fly from Kathmandu to Taplejung (2320 meters)
trek to Lali Kharka (2276 meters) 3 hours.
Half hour flight to Taplejung at Suketar Airport. The
porters and crew will be waiting for our arrival. After
landing we take an early lunch, while the crew arranges
our gear. In the afternoon we blow out the cobwebs with
an easy 2 to 3 hours walk along the ridge line to Lali
Kharka, a grazing area. Overnight at tented camp.
Day 4: Trek to Khesewa (2120 meters) 5 hours.
After traversing the hillside a short way, we descend to
the village of Pakora along the Phawa Khola, crossing a
suspension bridge before beginning the steep climb up
towards Kunjuri. Lunch will be taken somewhere below
Kunjuri and the afternoon's walk takes on a short
distance over the crest of the ridge to our campsite at
Khesewa. We get our first views of Kanchenjunga, and
should be able to clearly make out the south and main
summit along with Yalung Kang. Overnight at tented camp.
Day 5: Trek to Mamankhe (1920 meters) 5 hours.
Today the path covers steep hillside through terraced
fields high above the Kabbeli Khola. There are some ups
and downs crossing side valleys but there are many shady
spots to rest. After lunch at one of these we pass the
village of Anpan, before descending to cross the Kashawa
Khola and then, finally, we climb again through terraced
fields to the village of Mamankhe. Overnight at tented
camp.
Day 6: Trek to Yamphudin (2080 meters) 6 hours.
Today the walk start with an easy climb to Yamphudin
along a track which contours the hillside above the
Kabeli Khola. The path has several ups and downs as we
cross the ridges and stream beds that make up the valley
sides. Generally the route is flat and the river
eventually becomes level with the trail a couple of
hours before Yamphudin. At last we can stop to bathe in
one of the clear pools within this beautiful river. It
is truly an idyllic spot. After lunch by the river we
complete the day's walk to Yamphudin. Yamphudin is the
most remote settlement in this area and the last village
we will see until we reach Ghunsa. It is a charming
place tucked away beneath the ridge of Deurali Danda
that we must cross next. Overnight at tented camp.
Day 7: Trek to Chitre (2965 meters) 5 hours.
Beyond Yamphudin the trail ascends a steep spur, a
gentle introduction for what will come. Leaving villages
behind we trek through pleasant forest, stopping for
lunch in a meadow capturing fine views of the north and
south. A steep descend to the river an interesting
bridge across the Omje Khola to our campsite in Chitre.
Overnight at tented camp.
Day 8: Trek to Tortongn (3010 meters) 6 hours.
Starting the day with 3 hours of steep ascent to the
crest of the Deurali Danda in dense forest most of the
way. From the 3230 meters pass we see Jannu, definitely
closer! We descend across some steep and exposed areas
before entering the forest again. The sharp descent
through beautiful forest continues down into the valley
of the Simjua Khola. Across the 'interesting' wooden
bridge is Tortongn, a camping place with numerous rock
shelters amid towering conifers. The steep hills make
today a tough 6 to 7 hours trekking. Overnight at tented
camp.
Day 9: Trek to Tseram (3870 meters) 6 hours.
Today we follow the river through more beautiful forest,
the conifers giving way to the rhododendron forest. The
valley climbs fairly steeply and as the day progresses
the trees become more stunted and scattered, giving us
glimpses of the snow-capped giants ahead and the massive
snout of Yalung Glacier. Just before Tseram the towering
heights of Kabru and Rathong peak start to peep over the
moraine. Camping at Tseram, a grazing area, the night
temperatures will remind us that we are really gaining
height. Overnight at tented camp.
Day 10: Trek to Ramche (4580 meters) 4 hours.
A shorter day's walk up the final 600 meters to Ramche
where the trail to Kanchenjunga South turns dangerous.
The scenery is magnificent as we ascend past snout of
the Yalung Glaciers into a series of ablation valleys
which gives easy walking and good camping. A frozen
lake, clear streams and views of Koktang, Rathong and
Kabru are the highlights of this stroll. Expect to feel
the altitude today. Overnight at tented camp.
Day 11: Explore around Ramche (4580 meters) and trek to
Oktang (4730 meters) 5 hours.
Our first close encounter with Kanchenjunga. Following
the valley round to see the stunning south face of
Kanchanjunga and Jannu. We get across the Yalung Ri
Glacier and continue by a sweeping curve, at Oktang,
4730 meters, we are suddenly confronted with the
southern wall of the mountain. This vast ridge forms a
cirque over 15 kms long, nowhere less than 7500 meters
high and with three main summits of Kanchenjunga at 8420
meters, 8586 meters, and 8474 meters! It is a
breathtaking mountain panorama and especially impressive
is Jannu while observing the glaciers flowing from its
east face. Overnight at tented camp.
Day 12: Trek to Yalung Ri Base Camp (5400 meters) 5
hours.
This extended part will take you to the high altitudes.
It requires determination and some luck too. The
crossing of high passes requires good weather, and of
course perfect logistic support. Expect to get
acclimatized with the altitude today. Overnight at
tented camp.
Day 13: Trek back to Ramche (4580 meters) 5 hours.
(Yalung Glaciers and a series of valleys, give good
walking and perfect camping. A frozen lake, clear
streams and magnificent views are the highlights of this
stroll. Overnight at tented camp.
Day 14: Trek to Sallerle over the Mirgin La (4480
meters) 6 hours.
We trek down the valley, passing the turn off to the
high and challenging Labsang La route to Ghunsa and the
north side of Kanchenjunga. This pass is rough and
dangerous, especially for porters so we take the more
southern set of passes, beginning with the Mirgin La.
After an initial steep climb and several false summits
we reach Mirgin La. Apart from the magnificent Jannu, on
the horizon are Makalu, Gyakung Kang, Everest, Lhotse
and Chamalang. To the south it is possible to see down
to the Terai, a panorama worth the effort. Our campsite
will be beyond the pass, after 6 to 7 hours tough
walking. Overnight at tented camp.
Day 15: Trek to Ghunsa (3475 meters) 5 hours.
Although there four more passes, there is little descent
between them, so in effect it is a high scenic area.
After lunch descent brings us to Lamba Sumba Kharka
where there are more views of the awesome Southwest Face
of Jannu. From Kharka the going is easy again down a
pleasant forested trail to the village of Ghunsa, where
we camp in the village. Ghunsa is a picturesque Tibetan
village; prayer flags flutter from the wooden houses and
there are two monasteries, a welcome sight after the
many days of wilderness. One of the local specialties’
is 'Tongba', a curious alcoholic drink. A jug or large
bamboo cup is filled with fermented millet seed and
boiling water pored over. The flavour and alcohol seep
though and you drink it with a special straw. You might
need a drink after the tough 4 to 6 hour walk. Overnight
at tented camp.
Day 16: Trek to Kambachen (4040 meters) 6 hours.
Gradually the trail ascends to south of the Ghunsa Khola
and crossing flood plains while emerging on a pasture
situated at the north side of the river. A steep climb
to a slope from where it crosses a slide and then
descends to Lakepo. A short climb from here to the
village of Kambachen 4040 meters. Overnight at tented
camp.
Day 17: Exploration day at Kambachen.
Today we spend acclimatizing to high altitude. It also
doubles up as a rest day and can be used for a short
morning hike to explore the area around Kambachen. Those
who feel the urge should be able to catch up on their
laundry. Otherwise, a good book should get you through
the day perfectly. It is essential to acclimatize to the
higher altitude as you have been spending a lot of time
at lower altitudes.
From here there are good mountain views of the peaks
near Kanchenjunga which are visible. You can hike up the
ridge above the village for better views or take a day
hike to the Jannu Base Camp. The Nepali name for Jannu
is Kumbakarna. Overnight at tented camp.
Day 18: Trek to Lhonak (4790 meters) 6 hours.
A gradual climb through rocky fields gets you to Ramtang
at elevation of 4240 meters then crossing northwest of
the Kanchenjunga Glacier you reach Lhonak. Lohnak is on
a sandy plain near a dry lakebed. You will camp between
the boulders here to stay out of the wind. There are
beautiful mountain vistas all around. Water is very
scarce in Lhonak and you will need to use only as much
as absolutely necessary. Overnight at tented camp.
Day 19: Trek to Pang Pema (5140 meters) 4 hours.
The main Kanchenjunga peak is only visible from Pang
Pema, which is the base camp for expeditions on
Kanchenjunga. From Lhonak, the trail gradually ascends
across the plain but soon gets steeper as it follows the
moraine. Pang Pema is at a height of 5140 meters.
Overnight at tented camp.
Day 20: Explore around Kanchenjungha Base Camp (5100
meters) and retrace your steps to Kambachen 5 hours.
Today those who would like to take a morning hike up a
ridge, north of Pang Pema. A climb of 200 or 300 meters
and provides a great vantage point with views of
Kanchenjunga, Wedge Peak, the Twins and Tent Peak. As
usual the descent goes faster and you can reach
Kambachen the same day. Overnight at tented camp.
Day 21: Trek to Ghunsa 6 hours.
More descents thru magnificent sections of forest as
long as we make Amjilosa tomorrow it doesn't matter
where we stay. From Ghunsa an hour down we pass through
Phole, a village in two parts. The upper sections house
Tibetan refugees who are well established, the second is
the winter village of Ghunsa. Further down is Yangswa, a
great and warm camp. Overnight at tented camp.
Day 22: Trek to Amjilosa (2460 meters) 4 hours.
Initially we pass thru beautiful forest opening out to
steep, grassy hillsides where Amjilosa is perched.
Overnight at tented camp.
Day 23: Trek to Sakathum (1600 meters) 5 hours. Down,
down and down! After a short climb we begin the steep
descent that will take most of the day. We reach the
joining of the Tamur and Ghunsa Kholas. Overnight at
tented camp.
Day 24: Trek to Chhiruwa (1200 meters) 5 hours.
We cross the Simbu Khola, which originates from
Kanchenjunga's south base camp, the Khola that we
followed up from Torontan. It is pleasantly warm at
these low altitudes and cardamom grows freely in the
moist shaded forest. Crossing numerous small tributary
streams we reach Chhirwa, a village set among large
boulders. We camp in a field out of the village. This is
an easier day. Overnight at tented camp.
Day 25: Trek to Suketar (2420 meters) 5 hours.
Traversing in an out of minor valleys, we pass thru a
succession of picturesque villages on our way to
Suketar, reaching around late afternoon. Overnight at
tented camp.

recently visited one last time on the 35 minute Scenic
flight back to Kathmandu. Overnight at hotel.
