Makalu
(8,481m), the fifth highest mountain of the world lies on
the Nepal & Tibet border. The trek provides a high mountain
feel with sherpa settlements and some outstanding vistas of
major peaks to the east of Everest. From Tumlingtar we trek
a long way up the Arun River valley past some beautiful farmhouses
along with small temples and gompas and extremely colourful
vegetation & flowers. Many different ethnic groups live
here in a way not seen in many other areas of Nepal. We continue
on to Seduwa and Num to cross the Barun La (4110 meters) to
enter the upper Barun Khola Valley for close up views of Makalu
(8463 meters) and Chamlang (7317 meters).
The trekking is not particulary difficult although one should
bare in mind it is a long trek |
