The northern part of Dolpo is usually
called Inner Dolpo and has always had an aura of
mysticism. The high valleys of Dolpo are some sign of
the most remarkable in the Himalaya with sweeping views
stretching to the arid Tibetan plateau. Trekking here
offers a real adventure, in a remote, unspoiled. part of
Nepal that has remained largely untracked and
unexplored.
Our trek begins with a flight to jumla via Nepalgunj.
The first part of trek is not difficult and provides
delightful walking before joining ancient trade routes
and the steep ascent to cross the Kagmara La (5225m, our
entrance to upper Dolpo. The scenery begins to change
with the hills becoming shades of red, brown and gray.
Eventually you can hear prayer flag fluttering at the
top of the pass, and the view opens up dramatically
looking east towards the snow peaks of the kanjiroba
Himal and the five peaks of Dhaulagiri. We soon walk
through the pleasant green pastures to the beautiful
Phoksundo (Rigmo) lake. The scenery is |
 |
|
outstanding with the deep blue waters
of the lake contrasting with the weathered red and brown
hills.
We cross over two high passes, the Bag La (5182m) and
the Numa La (5148m). From the Numa La descend into the
Tarap valley to the village of Dho Tarap. Our
adventurous journey finally comes to and end at Juphal
with an easy two days walk following the Bheri River to
the small airstrip at Juphal and we fly back to
Kathmandu via Nepalgunj. |
