 Lower
Dolpo Trek |
|
The Dolpa region, designated as Shey
Phoksundo National Park, is the most remote
district in Nepal situated in the Trans
Himalayan region of mid-western Nepal Dolpa,
known as "Ba Yul" or the hidden valley has
fascinating villages and is still a land of
mystery, scenery and peace. Dolpa is divided
into two parts. The lower part of Dolpa has
Hindu influence, while inner Dolpa
is populated by Tibetans. A 14 days trek in
the lower Dopla takes you to Ringmo and
beyond - Phoksundo Lake at 3600m also known
as the Blue Lake contains no aquatic life.
The trek crosses two high passes of Baga La
(5070 m) and Numa La (5190 m) into Dho Tarap
village(4040 m) a region inhabited by people
practicing polyandry and pre-Buddhist
religion called "Bon Po". The trek follows
Tarap Khola to Dunai and ends with a flight
to Nepalgunj.
The trek in Upper Dolpa crosses Sheula pass
from Phoksundo Lake to the legendary Crystal
Mountains to Shey Gompa(4200 m) a Buddhist
monastery and further to Samling Gompa, a
Bon Po monastery. This region has a long
aura of mysticism about it. Site of Eric
Valli's Oscar nominated movie "Caravan" -
the people here trade salt for grain with the
people from far away land of Hurikot and
Jumla to compensate their dwindling winter
supply of food. The return trek visits
Saldan Gompa to Do Tarap and back to Dunai
(2150 m).
