Kanchenjunga Round Trek

Trip Overview

Another amazing and authentic trek in Nepal is the Kanchenjunga round trek. Mt.Kanchenjunga(8,586m) is the world’s third-highest mountain.

The area is full of the diverse cultures of Gurung, Rai, Limbu, and Sherpa people. These ethnic groups have a rich culture and values.

This trek provides opportunities to explore the unspoiled region of Nepal. It is also well known as the home of the Red Panda, snow leopard, and other snow animals, birds, and plants. During this trek there will be parts where the trail is very rugged or dangerous, some trails have been trekked only once by a small party, and so the trek will be tough.

Camping trek is recommended still but lodge trek can be run looking the participation. A special trekking permit is needed for this trek. To obtain permits minimum of 2 trekkers are needed.
