Scheda viaggio


● LHASA - KATHMANDU
Asia - Tibet and Nepal

An unforgettable adventure, halfway between a journey holiday and a trek. Kathmandu, Nepal and Lhasa, Tibet: an incredible voyage to the heart of Tibet with extraordinary views of the great 8000ers: Everest 8884m, Cho Oyu 8201m, and Shisha Pangma 8023m.
A unique occasion to learn about both the Hindu and the Buddhist cultures, to visit the two most symbolic cities of the Himalayas and to enjoy the Nepalese green valleys and the Tibetan deserted highlands.

Observations
  • Trip and trekking are not particularly difficult but they require a good physical condition and acclimatization because of the high altitude (always between 3500 and 5000 meters)
  • Trekking takes place in concomitance with the Cho Oyu 8201m summit expedition, so “expedition” and “trekking” groups will go together until cinese base camp
  • Request detailed documentation and equipment list at Mountain Kingdom
