Overview
Experience the pristine beauty of the Kanchenjunga region, renowned for its unspoiled landscapes, diverse flora, and fauna. Unlike more popular trekking routes, Kanchenjunga offers a serene and off-the-beaten-path experience amidst towering peaks and lush alpine forests.
Encounter a tapestry of cultures as you trek through remote villages inhabited by ethnic groups such as the Limbu and Sherpa. Immerse yourself in their traditional way of life, explore ancient monasteries, and witness unique rituals and customs that have remained unchanged for generations.
Marvel at breathtaking views of Kanchenjunga and its neighbouring peaks, including Jannu, Yalung Kang, and Kabru. The trek takes you through dramatic landscapes, pristine glacial lakes, and high mountain passes like Sele La and Mirgin La, offering panoramic vistas that rival any in the Himalayas.
