Overview

THE GREAT HIMAHEADING WAY AND TRAVELERS WAY IN LAYA TRAIL NEPAL.

The Great Himalaya Trail - Section 5 (Dolpo to Mugu Region) Trek 34 days 33 night

The Great Himalayan Trail- Section 5 from East Kanchenjunga to West Mugu District in Nepal. The Great Himalayan Trail Trek is the most Adventure camping trek offering stunning views of mountains, landscapes, flora, fauna, and culture unchanged by the modern world. This section of the trek enters Mustang at Kagbeni, a quaint medieval town nestled in apple orchards and encircled by Snow Mountains. The trek traverses in high Sangda-La Pass and enters another remote hidden destination and the most tranquil as well as natural beauty is still unexplored in the far west of Nepal. The noteworthy figure seen here is immaculate snowy peaks, ancient and isolated villages, rich wildlife, a reliable Buddhist monastery, and wonderful lakes. The people of this area are simple and warm-hearted with enthralling culture and traditions. The cultural traditions of this area are basically linked with Tibetan. Trekking into this region gives an exposure to the High & Isolated Himalayan valleys, resembling the Tibetan highlands. The major highlight of this trek includes “Shey Phoksundo National Park” which is the largest National Park in Nepal. “Shey Phoksundo Lake” is another prominent factor of this region. The lake is totally free of aqua life, which the crystal waters clearly explain. Surrounded by rock, forests, and snow-capped peaks, the area has been described as one of the World's “Natural Hidden Wonders”.

Along the trail, you will see all the mountains scaling more than 8000m. The mountains seen include Everest 8848m, Lhotse 8516m, Kanchenjunga 8586m, Makalu 8485m, Cho Oyu 8150m, Manaslu 8156m, Dhaulagiri 8167m, Annapurna I 8051m, and thousands of snow-capped peaks. Apart from the world’s highest mountains the trail also offers a rare privilege to discover the ancient Nepalese tradition and culture unchanged by the modern time. The trek is considered very difficult and is recommended for those who want to push up to the limits of physical endurance. The trails pass through the following national parks, Makalu, Sagarmatha, Gaurishankar, Langtang, Manaslu, and Annapurna giving the trekkers the most rewarding trekking trip on the planet.

The trail is accompanied by beautiful villages, farms, forests, streams, falls, glaciers, and magnificent landscapes. The highest altitude on the trails is at Sherpani Col 6150m. The trail is divided into nine sections they are Kanchenhjuna – Makalu, Everest – Rolwaling, Langtang – Helambu, Ganesh Himal – Manaslu, Annapurna -Mustang, Dolpa, Rara – Jumla – Mugu, Humla and the Far West. The eastern section of the GHT offers sights of the highest mountains while the western section offers timeless land of valleys, barren hills, and very less populated villages. There are high chances to spot rare animals like Red Panda and Snow Leopard on the GHT trek. Great Himalayan trail trek Trekkers can observe a wide range of forests including conifers, broadleaf deciduous forest, rare alpine shrubs, and medicinal plants. The GHT trek can be considered an exploratory trek. The trek gives memory to cherish for a lifetime. If you are looking for the next beautiful and daring adventure holiday, then GHT is the trek to do. This  Adventure Trip is always organized by Sange Adventure Trek.
