valley extends east to west of the Gauri Shankar Massif
(7134 m) and this trek through the Rolwaling valley
is one of the truly "off-the-beaten-tracks".
Starting with a drive from Kathmandu to the village
of Charikot. Passing through the Rolwaling valley and
cross the Tashi Labtsa to the Khumbu valley. Returning
to Kathmandu via the remote mountain airstrip of Lukla.
The route can be reversed as well.
However, the strain and
degree of difficulty are constantly rewarded with visits
to remote villages, the magnificence of the omni-present
mountains and walks through thick Rhododendron forests.
On the approach to the Tashi Labtsa pass (5755 m), the
northern skyline is constantly dominated by the summit
of Mt. Gauri Shankar (7146 m.), for a long time confused
with Everest and thought to be the highest mountain
in the world. This trek takes you through a demographic
cross section of Nepal that can not be sampled on any
other trek. Since the reopening of this route the small
Sherpa villages of Beding and Na are accessible to trekkers
who would like to see what traditional Sherpa culture,
untouched by western influence, really looks like.
