Kanchanjunga Base Camp Trek

Located on the fringes of the Eastern Himalayas, Mt. Kanchenjunga - the third highest mountain in the world - straddles the Nepal and Sikkim borders. This route is virtually un-trekked and away from the popular trekking routes of the country thus giving you the opportunity to enjoy the unspoilt charm and well preserved environment without the distractions modern day life. Due to its distance from the capital city and main thoroughfares the trek does not draw an immense number of holidaymakers like other areas do so you will have the whole of the region for yourself to absorb. This wonderful trip starts with a scenic flight with the Langtang, Everest and Kanchenjunga range serving as constant companion, across mid hills of Nepal and over the Gangetic plains of the southern Nepal until we reach the unassuming airport at Suketar on the foothills of Kangchenjunga. The trek to the base camp offers visual delights and distinctive cultural experiences as we tread along the trails of this high country. We make our way across villages untouched by the modern lifestyle. The trail snakes through pristine rhododendron, oak and pine forests and across small settlements scattered along the route inhabited by different tribes offering a peek into another interesting facet of route. As we trudge higher up the landscape changes dramatically as greenery gives way to small tenacious bushes and shrubs until you are in the midst of glaciers and moraines. The main feature of the trek is that it combines a visit to both the North and South Base Camps on the Nepalese side.
