This isolated trek takes place in
Eastern Nepal which is the home to Mt
Kanchenjunga, the third highest peak in
Nepal. At 8596 meters this massive peak
dominates the southern range of the
Himalayas. This section of Nepal has
only been open to trekking since 1988,
which explains its richness of
traditional culture. This is one of the
longer treks we offer and has many
possibilities for extra days to explore
different areas that are surrounded by
the great mountains of eastern Nepal.
The Kanchangunga area has a profusion of
high summits of which three are above
8,000 meters and 11 above 7,000 meters.
Your trekking route is drained by Tamur
River that meets Arun below Mulghat.
Numerous glaciers feed the river. The
glaciers north of the main peak are
clockwise Nupchu, Lhonak, Chichima,
Gimsung, Pyramid, Kanchenjunga and
Ramtang. West and South of the main peak
are Kumbhakarna (Jannu), Yamatari and
Yalung glaciers. Kangbachenga (4038) in
Ghunsa valley and Walungchung (3,200m)
in Tamur valley are the highest
settlements in the area. The latter was
an important trading centre between the
towns of Darjeeling and Tipta La in
Tibet. The only access to the
Kanchenjunga area is a road link to
Basantapur and a direct air link to the
town of Taplejung bazaar.
Length of Trek: Basantapur – Taplejung
