6-Day
HELAMBU VILLAGES
Lodge Trek
A Pleasant Hike To The
Sherpa Villages Of Helambu.
|
The
Sherpa villages of Helambu due north of
Kathmandu valley presents an easy getaway.
This area because of its low elevation and
the Sherpa villages make it an interesting
6 day loop. Starting with a short drive
from Kathmandu to Sundarijal the trail to
Helambu climbs on to the Shivapuri ridge
from where there are sweeping views of the
central Himalayas. Following a ridge-line
the trek heads north to Thare Pati before
turning east to Melemchi Gaon and Tarke
Gyang the principle villages of this area.
From here we visit Shermathang before descending
to the Melamchi river to end our trek with
a drive Melamchi Bazaar back to Kathmandu.
Moderate
trek through the Helambu villages between altitudes of 1,370m/4,500ft
to 3,490m/11,500ft. Accommodation in comfortable
lodges run by local families. The trek starts
with a drive from Kathmandu and includes
all meals, services of experienced trek
guide and porters to carry luggage. Clients
carry a light day-pack only and walk at their
own pace.
