Trekking In Kanchanjunga Region |
 |
|
| |
Kanchenjunga 8586
meter - the third highest mountain on the world, as the queen of the
Great Himalayas, stands on the Nepal-Sikkim border high above
rhododendrons and large forests with rivers pouring from its sides.
Nepal opened the Kanchen Junga region to trekkers in 1988, though
people have trekked in the area in connection with mountaineering
expeditions since the turn of the century.
Comparatively the region
is a long way from Kathmandu, and the nearest airport and roads are
a long way from the mountain. As per the rule of His Majesty's
Government of Nepal, there should be at least two trekkers in a
group to trek at a time. On the trip you will be able to study the
culture and lifestyle of Rai and Limbu communities.
For a trekking trip to the north base camp at Pangpema 5140 meter,
taking flight from Kathmandu to Biratnagar then drive Biratnagar to
Basantapur and trek to Kanchen Junga North Base Camp and return to
Taplejung by the same route, then flying back to Kathmandu from
Taplejung takes minimum 23 Days. But the same trek can be done in 18
days, if taking both way flight from/to Taplejung.
To make trekking trip to the south base camp at Oktang 4800 meter
and Yalung glacier at same elevation, taking both way flight from
Kathmandu to Taplejung takes minimum 16 days.
One who want to make entire trek in Kanchen Junga region including
Milke Danda ridge (the trekking route above 4/5 days from Basantapur)
with both North and south base camp, crossing five high passes in 'Mirgin
La route' (Crossing max.4660 meter) or 'Lapsang La route' (Crossing
max.5110 meter) in between the short connection route of these two
base camp takes minimum 26 to 30 days.
Here, I'm presenting some suggested and ideal itineraries for
general guideline.I also accept and quote for the itineraries of
