A little about trip

Upper Dolpo trekking, leads you to one of the most exciting and mystical destinations around Nepal Far North-Western Himalaya in complete isolation away from the modernization world in the harmony of the pristine and beautifully clean and fresh environment.

Upper Dolpo although a remote and hidden Shangri-la which was exposed to the outside world in the famous novel ‘Snow Leopard’ written by American author Peter Mattessian published in the early 1980s and later in 1998 a film was shot around Dolpo called the ‘Himalaya’ a French and Nepalese venture nominated for a best foreign movie in Oscar.

Truly a dramatic country where you can enjoy the adventure of a lifetime experience around the wild-west of Nepal in Upper Dolpo Trekking takes you to Nepal’s largest National Park within Shey-Phoksundo protecting its rare and endangered species of herbs and vegetation with wild-life Snow Leopard and Blue Sheep with other elusive animals.

Starting with scenic air journey from Kathmandu to land at Nepal Far South West at Nepalgunj city airport and then flight continues to reach Inner Dolpo at Jhuphal where the walk begins heading towards beautiful Phoksundo Lake within Ringmo village,

Walk progress with fabulous time around the emerald-colored lake heading higher to our true destination at remote and isolated Shey-Gompa known as Crystal Monastery due to its close location within Crystal Mountain nearby, reaching at Shey Gompa after crossing the highest pass of the adventure over Kang-la above (5,350m) high.

Interesting moments at Shey Gompa exploring its wild areas are often ventured by visitors, where our journey comes more adventure after trekking towards Inner Dolpo areas within Mischagaon and Shimen and Tinje Village with Chharka Village to reach Jomsom via Cross Higher Sangda La (5,515m/18,093ft) for sweeping flight back to Pokhara.

Our wonderful adventure concludes on reaching Kathmandu with ever-lasting memories of Upper Dolpo Trekking around Nepal Far West Himalaya within the remote and forgotten country of Dolpo.
