| Shishapangma Base Camp Trek |
| The long hidden peak above 8000m is Mt.
Shishapangma. Among fourteen peaks above 8000m, Shishapangma is
one. The peak that lies in the main Himalayan ridge
approximately 80 kilometers north east of Kathmandu Valley right
behind the Langtang Himal is at an altitude of 8013 meters
height. The peak of Shishapangma is explored from the
Shishapangma Base Camp around 14 days trek. As it is
inaccessible from Nepal, we take a day-drive to Nyalam—a place
in Tibet— from Kathmandu. The next day we stay here and get used
to it. The other day we precede our trek to Draabochhan. Right
from Draabochhan, we follow the track on foot to Shishapangma
Base Camp at an altitude of 4980m via Shingdip at 4560m. While
returning we follow the track on foot to Nyalam (3780m) via Draabochhan. Finally we drive to Lhasa via Lhatse (4050m), Shigatse (3900m) and Gyantse (3950m). After 2-days
stay in Lhasa, we fly back to Kathmandu. The interested
climbers to explore fair and easier trek from Tibetan side has the best option to trek to
Shishapangma Base Camp. The trail to Shishapangma Base Camp
provides remarkable as well as varied experience with its alpine
walk and alluring meadows of green lush. A fine exposure of
colourful wild flowers can also be experienced on the way. The
weather mostly remains here fine and clear during the day, but
most of the nights during June to September remains wet. |
