Dolpo Circuit trekking is the one of the most popular trekking routes as it gives the ultimate taste of natural and cultural phenomena enriched by the tradition and Tibetan culture. It offers us the chance to understand how life sustains in this high altitude. It is an experience that you will remember all your life.
Dolpo region lies to the west of Kali Gandaki valley in mid-western Nepal behind the Dhaulagiri massif, towards the Tibetan plateau. Most part of this area is protected inside the Shey Phoksundo National Park. Trekking in this area is not just for anyone; it is only for those who seek authentic adventure and challenge. This challenging and physically demanding trek involves two high passes crossing 5,000 meters mark and provides the spectacular views of Himalayan mountains. Centuries old monuments, gompas and monasteries wait to be explored.
Highland animals such as snow leopard, musk deers, mountain goats are conserved in this area whereas yaks are attached to the life of these people. Tibetan Buddhism and Bon Po are the integral part of the culture for the people residing in these villages. Bon Po religion precedes and is very much similar to Buddhism but has more shamanistic and animistic influences, giving a mythical appeal.
This -day long Dolpo Circuit Trekking package is carefully designed to provide you the best adventure covering most of the aspects that you can find in this region. Please see the standard itinerary that we have planned with this in mind. Ganesh Himal Hiking Team is happy to customize and improve it to suit your needs.
