Today, we will enjoy a scenic drive from Kathmandu to Dolakha where Jeep passes from Kathmandu through scenic high green hills and views of White Mountain on the north. Along the way, you will visit the Bhimeswar Temple in Dolakha. The last hour’s dusty ride leads to our campsite on the banks of the Tama Koshi River towards Singati. Overnight at a lodge.

Our route follows a deep valley that gradually becomes like a canyon. Cross the busy river on a picturesque suspension bridge and pass through several settlements and villages. The forest sometimes gives way to the view of Gaurishankar (7145 m). The area is still Hindu, but signs of Buddhism are beginning to appear on prayer flags and stupas.

On the 5th day of our Rolwaling trek we will continue trekking from Jagat to Simigaon where you can experience the unique lifestyle of the place. Furthermore, today after a 2.5 hour hike, leave the valley and head east. On impressive slopes, the trail slowly rises in height and later crosses the terrace. Simigaon is a village of Sherpa and Taman, featuring a Tibetan monastery towering over the hillside houses in front of Gaurishankar.

Today our trek from Simigaon to Donga at an altitude of 2800m. Similarly, today we finally enter the beautiful Rolwaling valley via beautiful Rhododrendron forest. Likewise, on today’s journey you will explore various flora and fauna of the place. After that we descend back down to the river and make our campsite on the Rolwaling Khola bank a narrow green belt beneath Gaurishankar.

Today we gradually climb the valley of tropical alpine forests surrounded by stunning mountain views. When you arrive at Beding, you should see Melungtse I (7181m), the highest peak of Rollwaring. The Beding is a lonely little village. Well-known for the Everest Summit, this Sherpa village offers chyang (barley beer) and salted yak butter tea. In the center of the village is an old and historic Buddhist monastery. Camp on the riverbank.

After spending a good night in Beding we will be properly acclimatizing for the trip and enjoying the beautiful view of the surroundings. Today we will also explore the attractions of Beding. Likewise, there will be great views of more than 15 snowy peaks, glaciers, and the natural forest in the Beding Valley below for you to enjoy while staying there.

Today we will trek from Beding to Na at an altitude of 4185m. Similarly, today A short walk will bring you to Na. The last small alpine village where people live only during the summer. Na is just below the Tsho Rolpa glacier lake and is located in a beautiful valley overlooking the most impressive mountains such as Chobutse (6685m), Chugimago (6259m), and Yalung Ri (5630m).

You can  take a break or arrange a trip to the Yalung La pass. Here we climb steadily and follow the road leading to the huge 4900m amphitheater  just below the pass and the icefall on the summit of Ramdun peak where the streams intersect. This is the perfect place to see the Tsho-Rolpa glacier lake. You can enjoy breathtaking views from all directions. The Yalung Glacier to the east, Ramdung Peak (5930m) to the south, Yalung Ri (5630m) to the west, and the stunning Himalayan peak along the Tibetan border to the north.

Today we climb up to the dam that holds back the Tsho-Rolpa lake, preventing it from splitting the thin moraine and destroying the valleys below the place. Similarly, we continue along the south bank. (The ancient route, marked on all maps, following the northern bank, and passing through Chobu, no longer exists. Furthermore, the moraines bordering the lake have all collapsed into it.) After a 300m climb, we must cross a disordered moraine area and only scramble down the height we walked up. The campsite is in a sandy amphitheater, between the Tsho Rolpa and Trakarding glaciers.

The trail leads to the Trakarding glacier. This is a huge, striking, rocky area that is sometimes replaced by large patches of bluish ice. We continue to fight towards the shelves just below the Dolumbau glacier. Getting to the glacier is now a big bet. Before entering the campsite, you need to climb a rock wall and lay a rope to help the porter climb 160m. It offers a stunning panorama with the Trakarding Glacier below and the stunning glacier surface of the Dolumbau glacier to the north. It’s a great place to see the myriad streams, falling rocks, and collapsing ice that flow from the glaciers.

The only way to build a foothold on the Drolumbau glacier is tricky and fairly steep. Our efforts are rewarded with unique views of Tengi Ragi Tau (6943m), Bigphero-Go Shar (6729m), Dragkar-Go (6793m), towards and beyond the Tibetan border against the backdrop of countless peaks. We walk on moraines and gentle slopes, sometimes crossing glaciers to the summit. The campsite is about 300 meters below the summit, past the tricky and impressive rock formations.

Today is an easy and pleasant descent. Furthermore, just before arriving in the tiny Sherpa village of Thame, we can visit its wonderful monastery perched on the hillside. Likewise, Thame lies on an important route for Tibetan traders and their yak caravans trekking across the Nangpa La (5716m/18,752) on the Tibetan border to Namche Bazaar and beyond.

Hiking to Khumjung Located at the foot of the holy mountain Khumjung. Khumjung is home to Edmund Hillary’s first school project. In the next village, Koundé, there is a hospital that is cared for by Canadian doctors. This most stable and traditional Sherpa cultural settlement is worth a visit, as is the oldest monastery in the area.

Today we will trek, from Kumjung to Monjo at an altitude of 2840m. Similarly, this journey is a relatively easy trek. While on this journey you can explore the wonderful flora and fauna of the place, including the unique cultural diversity of the place.
