Trekking
in Dolpo Region |
|
The northern part of Dolpo is usually called
Inner Dolpo and has always had an aura of
mysticism. The high valleys of Dolpo are
some sign of the most remarkable in the
Himalaya with sweeping views stretching to
the arid Tibetan plateau. Trekking here
offers a real adventure, in a remote,
unspoiled. part of Nepal that has remained
largely untracked and unexplored. Our trek
begins with a flight to jumla via Nepalgunj.
The first part of trek is not difficult and
provides delightful walking before joining
ancient trade routes and the steep ascent to
cross the Kagmara La (5225m0, our entrance
to upper Dolpo. The scenery begins to change
with the hills becoming shades of red, brown
and gray. Eventually you can hear prayer
flag fluttering at the top of the pass, and
the view opens up dramatically looking east
towards the snow peaks of the kanjiroba
Himal and the five peaks of Dhaulagiri. We
soon walk through the pleasant green
pastures to the beautiful Phoksundo (Rigmo)
lake. The scenery is outstanding with the
deep blue waters of the lake contrasting
with the weathered red and brown hills.
