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 ispopulated
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 andends 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
withthe 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). |
