Lower Dolpo Trekking.
Laying in western Nepal, Dolpo is one of the most remote
of Nepal’s regions. By special permit, we are able to
offer these-days trek through upper and lower Dolpo .Our
route follows much of the route taken by Peter
Mathiessen and George Shaller as described in The snow
Leopard. We trek 200 miles, averaging 10 miles a day. We
spend 6-8 hours a day trekking. Several layover days are
planned. Porters carry a day pack with the things you
need for the day. Participants should be in good shape.
We are at high elevation much of the time on this trip.
Five passes, over 16,500 feet, are crossed. Steep climbs
and descents are made.Treks in the Lower Dolpo do not
require special permits. The Lower Dolpo is located in
the mid western part of Nepal known as known as "Ba Yul"
in the local dialect or the hidden valley. One of the
many highlights of the lower Dolpo trek is the flat
upper valley, which contains a number of interesting
villages mostly inhabited by people of Magar & Gurung
origins. There are a number of Buddhist and Bon-po
temples to see along the way.
