ARUN VALLEY: (EVEREST FROM THE EAST)

 

No area of the Himalayas is more dramatically scenic or more ecologically and culturally diverse than the remote Arun valley of Eastern Nepal. Isolation from Kathmandu and the lowlands of India has limited many of the modern influences one finds in other areas of Nepal. A generally wetter climate and much steeper terrain has encouraged and sustained a natural diversity of plants, birds, and animals greater than is found in any other area of Nepal. From some of our chosen trekking routes it is possible to see an unobstructed panorama of great Himalayan peaks in Nepal, Tibet and Sikkim, including three of the four highest peaks in the World. Your route takes you between the great complex of Mt. Everest/Makalu and Kanchenjunga, possibly the most scenic peak in Nepal, but one seldom seen by Westerners. Ask for detail itinerary.
