Upper 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 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 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).
