20 days Overland journey from Lhasa to Nepal border & trek to the Everest
East -
The trek to the east face of Everest known as the Kangshung Face is one of the
most gorgeous in the world. This trek is relatively unknown and it passes
through pristine, untouched valleys and lakes. In fact, the entire region from
Kharta to the Kama Valley - extending to the Arun Valley on the Nepal side - is
part of the blessed land of Guru Rinpoche called "Be-yul Khembalung" or the
Hidden Valley.
The whole region abounds with holy lakes, mountains, and the sacred "Kharta
Tsechu", the long life water spring. Kharta and the Kama Valley are
characterized by magnificent alpine scenery and rich flora and contain the
highest known forests in the world. Three of the world's highest peaks Everest
8848 m, Lhotse 8501 m, and Makalu 8463 m overlook the valley.
We begin our trip by exploring the fabled city of Lhasa and head out to Nepal
border through the rugged mountain terrain visiting places of interest en route.
At Dingri we meet our Nepali Sherpa trekking crews and then continue to Kharta
from where we formally commence our trek.. We are probably one of the few Nepali
outfits that engage our own Sherpa staffs for all of our trekking trips in the
Tibetan Himalayas.
