Experience the splendor of the Himalayas by setting out on the Kanchenjunga Circuit Trek, which takes you via secluded routes in remote Nepal. For hikers who enjoy isolation, this walk provides a chance to go via remote mountain trails to the base camp of the third-tallest mountain in the world. Mount Kanchenjunga, which is located in Nepal's far northeast and is known as the "Five Treasures of the Great Snow" because of its five majestic summits, is a stunning mountain with outstanding views. Starting from Kathmandu with a flight to Bhadrapur, this 25-day circuit trip explores the less-trod areas of eastern Nepal to reveal its rural way of life.
Today, we embark on a sightseeing tour of Kathmandu, visiting four UNESCO World Heritage Sites: Swayambhunath Stupa, Pashupatinath Temple, Kathmandu Durbar Square and Bauddhanath Stupa. Following the tour, we meet our trekking team for a briefing on the upcoming adventure. Overnight in Kathmandu.
