Kangchenjunga means "five treasures of the greatest snow"

You will be walking along remote trails where few foreigners venture. The region is blessed by the world's third highest peak Kangchenjunga (8586m), the jewel of the Eastern Himalayas and is located on the border of Nepal , India and Tibet .
In addition to the main peak, four subsidiary summits exceed 8000m, the most important being Kangchenjunga West, also known as Yalung Kang (8,505m). Of some twenty peaks exceeding 7,000m, the highest are Kambachen (7,903m), Jannu (7,710m), Jongsong (7,483m), Kabru (7,353m), Tent Peak (7,365m) and the Twins (7,350m).
Trekking this route is a chance to venture into a rarely visited, unspoilt region of Nepal where the hillsides are still densely forested and the need to be self-sufficient is essential. Above the entire exhibition you are presented with the abundance of majestic nature and a whole lot more opportunities to explore and enjoy the traditional culture of the Rai and Limbu native people of this region.
The trails in this region follow the ancient paths which meander along scenic riverbanks, intricately terraced fields and forests connecting the picturesque hamlets and mountain villages.
You will encounter many eye catching rhodedendron-filled forests which have numerous varieties of blossoms which flower in spring.
