Trip Overview

Dolpo Trekking is an extraordinary adventure into the remote and pristine region of Dolpo, located in the far western part of Nepal. This hidden gem is often referred to as Nepal’s last frontier, offering a unique combination of raw natural beauty, rich cultural heritage, and a challenging trekking experience. The region is home to Shey Phoksundo National Park, Nepal's largest national park, and the stunning Phoksundo Lake, the deepest lake in the country. Dolpo is a land of mystical mountains, ancient Buddhist and Bon monasteries, and a fascinating Tibetan-influenced culture that remains largely untouched by modern civilization.

Package Highlights:

Shey Phoksundo Lake: The stunning turquoise blue lake is the highlight of Lower Dolpo. Nestled amidst snow-capped peaks, this serene lake is sacred to Buddhists and followers of Bon.
Shey Gompa (Crystal Mountain Monastery): An ancient monastery that is the spiritual heart of the Upper Dolpo region. It lies near the mystical Crystal Mountain, which pilgrims circle as part of their religious rituals.
Rich Tibetan Culture: The people of Dolpo are of Tibetan origin and practice Bon, the ancient shamanistic religion, along with Tibetan Buddhism. Trekking here offers an opportunity to witness traditional Tibetan lifestyles, customs, and practices that have remained unchanged for centuries.
Challenging High Passes: Trekkers have to cross several high passes, including Kang La Pass (5,360m) and Jeng La Pass (5,110m), offering jaw-dropping views of the surrounding mountain ranges.
Untouched Wilderness: The trails in Dolpo lead through dense pine forests, barren landscapes, high alpine meadows, and river valleys. The wildlife in Shey Phoksundo National Park includes the elusive snow leopard, blue sheep, and other high-altitude species.
Cultural Festivals and Monasteries: Dolpo is known for its Tibetan-style monasteries and cultural festivals like Chaam, the masked dance performed by monks.
