The Lower Dolpo Trek is an exciting off-the-beaten-path trail in one of the most secluded regions of the nation. The remoteness of Lower Dolpo makes the Lower Dolpo Trek one of the most exciting and secluded trekking experiences in Nepal. Due to the region's relative isolation, its terrain and villages have remained undisturbed and refined even after centuries. The traditional customs and rituals of the people that have been in practice for hundreds of years are still in practice. Trekking in the region resembles going back in time because of the region's rich religious perseverance. Lower Dolpo was opened for trekking in 1989. However, trekking in Lower Dolpo is unusual because of its far-flung location. The relatively untouched region presents many unexplored caves and landscapes brimming with natural beauty.
Located on a secluded corner of the Trans Himalayas of Nepal, Lower Dolpo resembles the Tibetan Highlands. The encompassment of high mountains, amazing landscapes, High Passes, beautiful valleys, and lakes makes Lower Dolpo an ideal far-off trekking destination. Experience the region's rich Tibetan Buddhist culture and see the people's day-to-day life in the region's remote acreages. Their nomadic ways combine magnificently with the land's beauty, making for an exciting trekking journey.
The Lower Dolpo Trek starts from Juphal, with trekking routes that go through outstanding locations on the backdrops of the high Himalayas. The colorful barren slopes of the region resemble a beautiful painting, and the mountains' tapestry decorating the foreground of the lands enhances its natural pulchritude. The wilderness of Lower Dolpo is rich in unique floral and floral lives that come across the path while trekking. Trekking on territories that rarely see outsiders, the Lower Dolpo Trek is an entirely partitioned experience unlike anything else in the country. The trail goes through three High Passes of Kangmara La, Baga La, and Numa La, which present amazing panoramic sights of the valley below. Quite a strenuous trek, the Lower Dolpo presents harsh climates and dry terrains. The beautiful sapphire Phoksundo Lake is also a major highlight of the trekking journey. Go through the famous Shey-Phoksundo National Park and encounter the park's unique wildlife and biodiversity.
