Summary
several days of walking through Limbu villages lead to
glacial valley south of Kanchejunga.
There are
lots of ways to make this trek, but the way I have
described is the easiest we arrange a flight in to
Taplejung or are prepared to take a long, difficult bus
ride. Take a look at the route profile for this trek:
there is an incredible amount of up-and-down walking.
When I
trekked this route, I calculated that we climbed and
descended more than 15,000 m during two weeks of walking.
Be sure you are ready for this kind of effort before you
set out: there are no escape routes if you get sick, tired
or bored.
