Upper Dolpa Trekking 28 Days

Upper Dolpa TrekFor the second time, under special consideration, this region has been reopened carefully by His Majesty's Government of Nepal. Set aside to protect the Trans Himalayan ecosystem, it was previously off limits to foreign visitors. The area resembles the high plateau of Tibet with typical flora, fauna and Tibetan hares have been sighted. This spectacular scenery of Lake Phoksundo is the highlight of this tour. And those who have read Peter Matheson's "Snow Leopard" will undoubtedly have nostalgic reminiscences. The journey into this area is well prepared and pre-planned due to its remoteness and ruggedness where food is scare and local porters are difficult to come by. If you are adventurous enough, this trip will excite you.
