Rolwaling Trekking
Between the Everest and Langtang regions is the stunning
mid-Eastern range of the Himalayas; the Rolwaling valley. This
is home to famous peaks such as Mount Ghauri Shankar (7134m),
Dorje Lakpa, and many others. A few miles south of the Tibetan
border, it is known as one of the seven hidden valleys in the
Himalayas. This is a wild and barely explored district where
legendary tales of the abominable snowman, known as the "Yeti",
haunt the imagination of climbers. On the slope of Rolwaling
Peak itself, the famous British mountaineer, Eric Shipton, first
photographed Yeti footprints in 1951.
The trek starts from Dolakha, near Charikot, an eight-hour drive
from Kathmandu. There is also the choice to continue your trek
by crossing Tashi Lapcha (5755m). Technical mountaineering
skills and equipment are required for this incredible adventure.
Trekkers also will be enjoying beauty of Tsho-Rolpa, the largest
Glacier Lake in Nepal and can continue on to the Khumbu region,
which links to trek routes in the Everest region.
Another option is to trek to Na, a small Sherpa village, to trek
back to Kathmandu. This trek requires a peak permit any of the
following peaks: Ramdung, Yalung, and Pacharmo. Permits must be
obtained from the Nepal Mountaineering Association through an
associated member trekking company. Beyond the Limits Treks
includes these arrangements in its service to clients.
