The
Makalu trek is an outstanding trek to the base camp of the
world’s fifth highest mountain. We fly to Tumlinngtar and
walk up the lush and beautiful Arun valley before crossing
the Shipton La (4127 m) into the upper Barun Khola Valley.
On the Makalu Trek we will meet the ethnic groups of Limbu,
Newar and Rai at the lower elevations and Tibetan Buddhists
at the higher elevations. At the Makalu base camp we will
get a close look at Makalu ( 8481 m) in addition to Everest,
Lhotse, Baruntse and Peak 6 and 7. This is an outstanding
trek in one of the most remote areas in Nepal that see very
few trekkers. |
