Kanchenjunga Trekking - 27 Nights 28 Days



Trip Overview
Kanchenjunga trekking is unspoiled and well-preserved trekking destination of Nepal with the lack of modern tourism infrastructure which works as a pleasure of adventure to trekkers from all around the world. Kanchenjunga lies in the north and far east of Himalayan belt dividing Nepal and Sikkim(India). The adventure trail leads to the north and south base camp of world’s third tallest mountain Mt Kanchenjunga(8586m) 28,168ft above sea level. It is the one and only trekking in the world where you can visit both sides of a mountain in a single Trek. Kanchenjunga trekking is actually named after before its name was “KANCHENDZONGA” means five jewels of snow peak in Tibetan which we can see on our way to Kanchenjunga Was officially started for tourist in 1988 and since then it has been one of the most adventurous trials because of the remoteness of the region, the physical and mental endurance trekkers need to overcome all the difficulty of the trek makes it one of the desirable trek of Nepal. The typical lifestyle of Sherpa, Limbu people, the flora and fauna, isolated monastery, the majestic mountain range, and the higher passes makes it very scintillating trek.
