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. |
