LOWER
DOLPO TREK |
|
Dolpa is located in the
shy- Phoksundo National park of mid-
western Nepal, behind the Dhaulagiri
massif, towards the Tibetan plateau, cut
off by a series of very high passes and
closed by the snow most of the year.
Dolpa remains a truly isolated corner of
Nepal. Time has stood still here for
centuries as inhabitants of Tibetan
stock continue to live, cultivate and
trade the way they have done since time
immemorial. The finally preserved
ecosystem encompasses a wild and
wonderful variety of plants and
wildlife, including the blue sheep and
snow leopard and magnificent views
including MT. Dhaulagiri(8167m.). A trek
through Dolpa is an experience not
easily forgotten for instance an
enchanting trek in this region by Peter
Matthiessen gave birth to his
masterpiece “Snow Leopards”, a spiritual
novel and one of the best sellers. A
trek of this region is recommended for
groups on basis of full board
organization. |
