Upper Dolpo Trek

Upper Dolpo

Upper Dolpo being one of the remotest, poorest and backward regions in whole of Nepal with its difficult terrains and extreme cold weather has been overlooked despite being a land of tourist potential and other opportunities. There are no motor able roads or airport in upper Dolpo, except the airport near district headquarter, Dunia which is several days journey from upper Dolpo. The people of upper Dolpo are deprived of fundamental rights of good education, basic medical facilities, and others such as postal and electricity services. The death toll cause by lack of basic medical facilities is quite alarming. The existing schools in upper Dolpo have only primary levels and health posts are functional only for a brief summer season.

Therefore, some of the NGOs are being inconsistent in supporting their programs in upper Dolpo. Read the rest of this entry »

A world famous island peak climbing

Island peak climbing

This is one of the most popular trekking peaks in Nepal and a 5 day add-on to a trek to Everest Base Camp. We offer this to groups of 2 or more and we can supply all the equirements of food, tentage, logistics, permits and climbing Sherpas. The mountain is 20,305’ high and is a feasible goal for hill walkers looking to stretch their experience to using ropes and fixed lines on a harder, higher mountain with an exposed summit ridge. Imja Tse as it is known to Nepalese not only provides an enjoyable climb but also provides some of the most spectacular scenery of Himalayas in the Khumbu region. Seen from the summit, the giant mountains of Nuptse (7,879m), Lhotse (8,501m), Lhotse Middle Peak (8,410m) and Lhotse Shar (8,383m) make a semi circle in the north. The views of Makalu (8475m) in the east, Baruntse and Ama Dablam in the south add more charm for climbing Island Peak. From Dingboche, near Pheriche, the mountain is clearly seen as a pyramid of ice and rock. It was named by Eric Shipton because of its resemblance to an island in a sea of ice. The mountain itself is the extension of the South Ridge of Lhotse Shar separated by a small col. The ridge rising to the south from this point leads to the summit of Island Peak. The route follows the Chukkung Valley to a tented Base Camp, from which the summit a challenging 6 to 9 hour climb depending on conditions. The route includes walking on rocky paths followed by snow and ice, a 1000’ headwall which is fixed with a rope to clip onto, and an exposed snowy summit ridge about 300 metres long which can be narrow and precipitous. There are some minor crevasses and the summit is small with room enough for about six people. Read the rest of this entry »
