Kanchanjunga Base Camp Trek

 

 

Description

 

The Kanchanjunga base camp trek leads you to the base camp of the third highest peak in the world, Mt. Kanchanjunga. The area  is famous for those trekkers who love to explore magnificent scenery and sheer isolation. This trek is quite adventurous and passes through a wild and fascinating district of eastern Nepal. Some exotic-named peaks such as Wedge Peak, Pyramid Peak, Janu Himal, White Wave and Twins can be viewed during this trek, next to Kanchanjunga itself. The route provides us an interesting variety of landscapes, vegetation, animals and culture.

 

Grade

 

The Kanchanjunga base camp trek is a trek which requires good physical health and a body that is able to walk longer distances. Because we will cross tough points sometimes, it is recommended that you are trained and in good condition when starting this trek. We will take time to adapt to higher altitudes on a regular basis, to prevent you from facing any difficulties during this travel. This trek is graded as a moderate trek.

 

Highlights

• Visiting the Kanchanjunga base camps, from where climbers continue their way to the peak of this mountain
• A wide variety of nature surrounding you during this trek
• Beautiful views on several mountain peaks like Wedge Peak, Pyramid Peak, Janu Himal, White Wave and Twins
