Kanchenjunga Southface Trekking

This trek approaches the South Face base camp of the World's third highest peak, Kanchenjunga [8598m.] which lies in the eastern frontier of Nepal. The trek begins right after landing at a STOL airstrip at Taplejung and takes you through fascinating villages and pristine forests to the awe-inspiring South Face Base Camp at Ramche at 4360 meter, before crossing to the north side of Kanchenjunga via the Mirgin La, the highest pass at 4663 meter. Glacial excursion around Ramche is truly an unforgettable experience. The return trek via Ghunsa is easier as most of the path passes along river valley.Only very few trekkers take up the challenge to venture into this unspoiled wilderness area each year. If you are ready to take up the challenge you can do this trek anytime in spring and autumn.
