Trip Overview

Churen Himal trek lies in western Nepal & is a part of Jaljala trek. The trek offers an opportunity to discover areas that remain practically untouched and still retain an idiosyncratic lifestyle without being affected by western influences.

In Churen Himal you will have a chance to trek into the mass of the Dhorpatan hills at about 3000-4500m. This area is full of rivers and fast glacial streams, lots of forest and animals. Visit the base camp of Churen Himal and follow the Pelma Khola down from its source to the rich forests and rocky spires of Lower Dolpa. A land myth and legend. In the settlement of Dhorpatan, we can see and visit the Bon Monastery, Tibetan Herbal Medicine School as well a friendly local village. Trekkers carry only day packs and walk at their own pace.

Average hiking per day will be 6-7 hrs.

Nepal is a nation between India and Tibet known for its temples and Himalayan mountains, which include Mt. Everest. Kathmandu, the capital, has a mazelike old quarter filled with Hindu and Buddhist shrines.

We did the 12-day itinerary trekking to Everest Base Camp. We booked it all from England and communicated with the owner Hari via email. Such a nice family that owns and runs this business. Very friendly and welcoming. We had loads of cups of tea with them in their shop in Thamel before and after our trek.
