 Dolpo
Valley Trek is enclosed by a horse-shoe of soaring mountain
peaks, higher than 21,000 feet. The cold, high desert of
Inner Dolpo has been the home to people of Tibetan stock
since the early centuries of the Christian era. In our
own time, Tibetan refugees continue to trickle into
Dolpo.
Opened to trekking in 1989, the Dolpo region is hard to
match for it’s pristine beauty and rugged charm, where
one can still have opportunity to meet the nomadic
people and their life style almost untouched and
unexplored. The Himalayas offer an endless variety of
landscapes, cultures and great people. This unbounded
diversity makes it a destination you can visit over and
over again. It even becomes more interesting and
fascinating with every time you return.
Lying in the rain shadow area of the Himalayas, the
landscape resembles that of the Tibetan Plateau instead
of the lush, green, monsoon watered hills, elsewhere in
Nepal, at comparative altitudes. The people, very
pleasant by nature, are of Tibetan descent who follow
the pre-Buddhist Bon religion. Their language is closely
related to Tibetan. The elevation of the trails is from
1650 meters (5,412ft) to 5136 meters (16,846ft) above
sea level.
Note: The itinerary

of holiday. For price and further information
