Kangchenjunga - Welcome to the unspoiled Himalaya in Nepal’s silent corner
The trek to Everest Base Camp may transport hikers two-thirds of the way up the world’s highest mountain, but the trails can often feel mobbed. Walkers who crave equally spectacular vistas with bonus silence trade the crowded paths of the Everest region for the empty wilds of far eastern Nepal, where Kanchenjunga – the third-highest mountain on Earth at 8586m (28,169ft) tall – rises amid a glacial garden of snow peaks.
While more than 57,000 trekkers and mountaineers make it to Everest Base Camp every year, the Kanchenjunga Conservation Area sees just 900 visitors annually. Don’t expect apple pie (Everest’s traveler comfort food) at every stop – you’ll need backing from a trekking agency to follow the rough trails that climb to the base camps above Pang Pema and Ramche. To soften the blow, remote farming villages provide welcome hot meals for the adventurous who make it out to this remote corner. And in exchange for the effort and expense, you’ll get a truly unspoiled vision of the Himalaya, as you pass through some of the most dramatic terrain on the planet.
