Experience the Enchanting Lower Dolpo Trek with Chamlang Expeditions

Explore the captivating beauty of Lower Dolpo, a trekking destination renowned for its endangered wildlife and unique landscape, with Chamlang Expeditions. Priced at USD 3000, our Lower Dolpo Trekking package offers an unforgettable adventure for trekkers seeking an extraordinary experience. The major inhabitants of this region are Tibetan nomads who practice Bon, the ancient Tibetan religion that predates the arrival of Buddhism in Tibet during the 7th century AD. At Chamlang Expeditions, we provide the most reasonable Lower Dolpo Trek cost, along with timely updated Lower Dolpo Trek Map and a flexible Lower Dolpo Trek Itinerary focused on client satisfaction.

Lower Dolpo boasts a diverse range of flora and fauna, making it a haven for nature enthusiasts. The region is home to pine, cordyceps, Artemisia, swertia, juniper, silver birch, walnuts, apples, and plums. In terms of wildlife, you can spot blue sheep, wild yak, wild goat, marmots, spiny babblers, golden eagles, and even red pandas. Lower Dolpo has gained international recognition, particularly after a renowned French photographer and film director shot his Oscar-nominated film ‘Caravan,’ which depicted the riveting story of rivalry between two yak leaders in this very region.

In addition to its striking landscape reminiscent of Tibet, Lower Dolpo offers breathtaking views of famous mountains such as Dhaulagiri (8167m), Kanjirowa (4786m), and other majestic peaks from the Tibetan plateau. Yaks, horses, and mules serve as the primary means of transportation, carrying supplies to different villages. Agriculture is the mainstay of livelihood in this region. As you traverse the trail, which takes you through thrilling gorges, beautiful barren valleys, and ridges, you’ll have the opportunity to immerse yourself in the unique Bonpo lifestyle and religion. Lower Dolpo, being off the beaten path, requires the inhabitants to travel for days to acquire necessary supplies from trading areas. The upper part of Dolpo exhibits a topography reminiscent of Tibet, providing a spiritual and cultural haven for wilderness enthusiasts.

Lower Dolpo Trail Description:
The trek commences with a brief sightseeing tour of the major UNESCO World Heritage Sites in Kathmandu Valley (1400m) before taking a flight to Nepalgunj (2400m). From Nepalgunj, another flight will take you to Juphal (2499m) as there are no direct flights from Kathmandu to Juphal. The trekking adventure begins from Juphal and continues through Dunai (2150m), Ankhe (2660m), Sumdo (3100m), Rimgmo-Phoksundo Lake (3728m), Bagala Pass (5070m), Numala Pass (5190m), Jaglung Gompa (4520m), Serkam (3570m), Khani Gaon (3543m), Heutaghar (2250m), Dunai (2150m), and finally back to Juphal (2400m). A flight from Juphal to Nepalgunj concludes the trekking experience.

Embark on an extraordinary journey through Lower Dolpo with Chamlang Expeditions for an unforgettable and enriching experience.
