The trek to Rolwaling Himal west of Everest and near the Tibetan border offers fascinating experience. Golden chance for trekkers who do not want to encounter a mass influx of tourist but equally enjoy mother nature and splendid views of Himalayas & exploring beautiful waterfalls, Chorolpa Lake, monasteries and landscapes.
Rolwaling is a wild and little-frequented East - West valley located in the East of Nepal, just south of the Tibetan border, below Gauri Shankar (7145m). Our journey begins with a scenic drive on the Katmandu - Lhasa highway to the ancient trading town of Dolakha. The trek leads through one of most remote and beautiful parts of Nepal, past picturesque Sherpa, Tamang and Chetri villages with their typical terraced fields, through dense, gloomy primeval forests and over broad ridges with wonderful views. It is a palpitating adventure over dizzy suspension bridges, impressive gorges and steep paths. We reach the Tashi Lapsa pass (5755m), in the glaciated wilderness of the very heart of the Himalayas. The mountain scenery is stunning: Tengi Ragi Tau (6943m), Bisphero Go Shar (6729m), Dragkar Go (6793m) and countless snowy peaks. After Tashi Lapsa we enter the Khumbu valley, land of the Sherpas. This trek is strenuous and requires fitness and basic mountaineering skills.
