Trekking In Dolpo
Dolpo, rugged and remote section and one of the most
beautiful treks in the far western corner of Nepal. Dolpo is
a restricted area and needs a special permit and only groups
with organised trek from a registered agent are allowed. The
region is well described by Peter Mathiessen in 1970 as
account of journey in his classic novel Snow Leopard. The
trek offers interesting people, places, villages, valleys
and serene forest of pines, oaks and Rhododendrons with
numerous high passes over 3500m. demands a lot of stamina.
This is one of the great adventurous trek to the mysterious
land where the pre-Buddhist Bon-Po religion is still in
practice. The recent Oscar nominated movie CARAVAN (HIMALAYA
as known in the western countries) was also shot here.
