Of all the world's great peaks,
Kanchenjunga is perhaps the least known; the
third highest in the world at 8,598m, It sits
astride the Nepal/Sikkim border only a few miles
from Tibet. This route was opened to the
trekkers in 1988, though people have trekked in
the area in connection with mountaineering
expedition since the turn of the century. Our
long trek here climbs from the intensively
cultivated hillsides of the Nepal Midlands,
populated by the Rai and Limbu tribes, towards
the peaks of Jannu and Khabru and the great wall
of Kumbakarna, Kanchenjunga and Rathong, passing
on the way through some of the finest high
mountain scenery anywhere. Until very recently
this was a restricted area, so this is an ideal
trek for those who already know Nepal and want
to get away from the better known areas and
visit a remoter part where few foreigners have
penetrated.
We fly from Kathmandu to Suketar and trek to
Chhirwa on the same day. The trek begins with
our first camp at Chhirwa then trek through
Gunsa, and ascend to the higher camp at Pang
Pema (5120m) and camp at Lhonak. The return trek
will assend Miring La pass and to Oktang the
south Base camp of Kanchenjunga and continue
down to Suketar via Tseram and Chittre. |
