Itinerary

Craving an off-the-beaten-path adventure? The Upper Dolpo Trek unveils Nepal’s most remote and mystical region, offering eco-adventurous routes through untouched landscapes and vibrant local cultures. Framed by Mt. Dhaulagiri and the Chure Himal, Dolpo is a land of blue sheep, elusive snow leopards, and centuries-old Buddhist and Bon monasteries.

The trek traverses Shey Phoksundo National Park, home to rare wildlife and the legendary Phoksundo Lake—the deepest in Nepal. Along the way, you’ll cross five high passes (over 5,000m), stay in isolated villages, and experience the artistry and spiritual depth of Dolpo’s inhabitants.

Upper Dolpo’s unique selling point is its profound sense of isolation—rarely visited by trekkers, it’s a living tapestry of nature, art, and tradition. This tour package is perfect for travelers eager to experience true wilderness, vibrant local culture, and the thrill of trekking in Nepal’s hidden kingdom.
