Kanchenjunga
south base camp trekking/hiking is one of the popular destinations in
Kanchenjunga region. Mt. Kanchenjunga (8586 m), the third highest mountain in
the world is one the unspoiled trekking trails in eastern part of Nepal in the
border of Nepal and Sikkim (India). The trekking to the south base camp offers
varieties of landscapes, cultures and panoramic views of four highest mountains
including Mt. Everest, Mt. Lhotse, Mt. Makalu, and Mt.
Kanchenjunga.
Kanchenjunga
South Base Camp With regards to the mountains themselves, in
addition to the main peak of Kanchenjunga, there are four subsidiary summits
exceeding 8,000m, the most important being Kanchenjunga West, also known as
Yalung Kang (8,505m). Also found in this area are approximately twenty peaks
exceeding 7,000m, the highest being Kambachen (7,903m), Janu (7,710m), Jongsong
(7,483m), Kabru (7,353m), Tent Peak (7,365m) and the Twins (7,350m). In
addition there are numerous peaks over 6,000m. Amongst this impressive cluster
of peaks are five major glacial systems. Of these, Zumu, Talung and Rathong
flow into Sikkim while to the west, the Kanchenjunga and Yalung glaciers flow
into the mighty Tamor River of Nepal.
This just adds to the fact
trekking in Kanchenjunga is an unforgettable experience where trekkers get
right into the heart of the remote, less trekked, Himalaya mountains and
valleys. With the recent addition to the trekking map, as well as other, remote
areas so there is the opening up of more tea houses on the route. While this is
a positive for the local communities, now would be a good time to go to
Kanchenjunga before more trekkers ‘discover’ the area so Nepal Guide info team
organized this trip during a March April may Aug September, October and
