Trekking In Kanchanjunga |
|
Kanchenjunga trekking give you
an opportunity to see panoramic views from every
direction. Kangchenjunga is the third highest
mountain in the world and the second highest in
Nepal. Kanchenjunga is translated along the
lines of "Five Treasures of the Snow" and the
main peak is 8586m high. The recently opened
Kanchenjanga region offers the keen walkers the
chance to explore a totally unspoilt upland
wilderness, which offers a most beautiful and
contrasting variety of scenery. Lush farmland
and wooded valleys give way, higher up, to
breathtaking mountain scenery, which includes
close-up views of Kanchenjanga and also distant
panoramas of the mountains of the Khumbu.
A journey to this area is a special treat-
starting from the tropical lowlands through
great rhododendron forests and lovely villages
of east Nepal upto the glacier and overwhelming
views. A trek to the south and north faces of
the world's third highest peak offers fantastic
mountain views, including Everest. It provides
you with an adventure, which will stay forever.
One of the most remote and beautiful areas in
Nepal, which, unused to foreign visitors, still
lies shrouded in mystery. The features of the
walk in are pleasant villages with different
ethic groups then in the high regions, glorious
mountains and abundant wildlife.
The trails climb from 1200 meters (4,000ft) to
5180 meters (17,094ft) above sea level. |
