EVEREST - Thyangboche Monastery Tea House Trek in
Nepal
A
Trek To The High Mountain Landscape Of Khumbu 'Land
of the Sherpa people'. |
|
|
|
This 10-day trek offers excellent views of Mt. Everest and
the main peaks of the Khumbu without going to extreme altitudes.
Starting with a flight to Lukla airstrip we trek in to Namche
Bazaar, the principle town of the area and the Sherpa 'capital.'
After a day of acclimatization in Namche Bazaar we explore
the traditional Sherpa villages of Kunde and Khumjung set
amongst incredible mountain scenery. We then trek to Thyangboche
- the site of Nepal's most sacred buddhist monastery. The
views from this ridge above the Dudh Kosi river is possibly
the most beautiful with Mt. Everest looming over the Lhotse
Ridge and Ama Dablam towering above the monastery. We continue
to Pangboche, the treks highest point, and then by way of,
seldom visited, Phortse we swing back to Namche and Lukla
to end the trek with a flight back to Kathmandu.
