Trek Highlights

- Journey to the remote cultural destination of Nepal through the old Trans-Himalayan caravan route.
- Lower Dolpo is also popularly known as the "Land of Natural Hidden Wonders".
- The Dolpo region has only been open to foreigners since 1989.
- The Dolpo region preserves one of the last remnants of traditional Tibetan culture, where the pre-Buddhist Bon-Po religion is still practised.
- Views of Labyrinthine valleys and the vividly turquoise Phoksundo Lake are the main highlights of this unique trip.
- Thrilling High passes Numa La Pass and Baga La Pass.
This trek was selected by very few travellers who wanted to see the unspoilt beauty and culture of a remote world without the tourist traffic. It is a time travel to a hidden world that has kept alive the essence of the ancient world that existed a thousand years ago.

Comprehensive Trek Guide

Dolpo is the home to one of the last remnants of traditional Tibetan culture. This region is given the name of “Hidden Valleys” by the legends. Interestingly, this hidden valley was created by Guru Rinpoche as a refuge for devout Buddhists during troubled times. Hidden beneath the high mountains that include Dhaulagiri massif to the southeast and cut off by high passes closed by snow half the year, Dolpo's easiest access is from Tibet, where its people emigrated perhaps 1000 years ago.
The Lower Dolpo Trek takes you on a trail that transverses ancient villages like Dho Tarap. Locals of Lower Dolpo practice centuries-old traditions and customs. The trail meanders around pine, oak, and juniper woods, which are home to endangered animals like the Himalayan musk deer, blue sheep, and snow leopard. Sky-piercing mountains will always give you company while trekking in the Lower Dolpo area.
We pass through two high passes: the Baga La (5,070m) and the Numa La Pass (5,360m), the highest point in this trek, from which we enjoy stupendous views of the Dhaulagiri Himal to the south and Tibetan ranges Kugung La and Khyung La to the north. We also visit the beautiful lake of Shey-Phoksundo, which glorifies the Lower Dolpo trek experience.
Tipping Recommendation
We recommend allocating 10-15% of your total tour cost to tipping guides, drivers, and other hardworking staff who ensure your experience is unforgettable. While tipping is not mandatory, it is a meaningful way to support the seasonal workers who dedicate themselves to making your trip extraordinary.
By booking with us and participating in the tipping culture, you are directly contributing to Nepal’s local economy and helping sustain the tourism workforce. This support is crucial in retaining talent within the country and addressing challenges like brain drain.
Your generosity makes a lasting impact—thank you!
