| Lower Dolpo trekking » Long trekking in Low Dolpo area | |||||||||||||||||||||
The Dolpo region is best known of the many isolated
high Himalayan valleys across northern Nepal. Dolpo preserves one of
the last remnants of traditional Tibetan culture. Legend say s
it's a one of the "hidden valleys" created by Guru Rinpoche as a refuge
for devout Buddhists in troubled times. Surrounded by high mountains
including the Dhaulagiri massif to the southeast and cut off by high
passes closed by snow half the year, Dolpo's easiest access is from
Tibet, where its people emigrated from perhaps 1000 years ago.Upper Dolpo shelters about 5000 people, whose lives revolve around Buddhism, barley, and yaks; their villages (over 4270 meters) are among the highest settlements on earth. A large portion of Dolpo has been set aside as Shey - Phoksumdo National Park, at 3555 square km Nepal's largest. The park shelters blue sheep, Himalayan black bear, leopards, wolves, and the exclusive snow leopard. We start our trek from Beni, after long day drive from Kathmandu going through nice village in the beginning and through high and remote area and passes later and finally come down to Juphal where we catch flight to Kathmandu. The route goes through high passes and very remote area of the country so we are rewarded with excellent view of mountain and virgin Tibetan culture on the way.As this is Nepal's one of the most demanding trek and goes through Numala & Bagala pass and remote area of the country where we should make lot of ascend and descend we therefore recommend to attempt only for experience trekkers. |
