Not astoundingly, the monsoon periods of June through August don't particularly allures hordes of hikers to Nepal. Majority of the people visualize high temperatures, heavy downpour that wash away bridges & turn roads into slippery surface unsuitable for walking, transportation delays, unidentifiable and leeches in plenty.
To assist you plan your summer trekking in Nepal, we have compiled a list of trek in Nepal along the great Himalaya trails:
Upper Mustang Trek:
The high altitude dry terrains of Mustang on the north part of the Annapurna cliff produces a crisp contrast to the rainy season lushness on the southern part of the rain shadow. The Upper Mustang trek guides via the foothill of the deepest valley in the globe, the Kali Gandaki valley, to the summit of 4 thousand meter mountain passes. It passes through hardly dispersed Buddhist village, along the edge of rigid canyon fences, past concealed caves & red walled monasteries. One of the major highlights on this trek is getting to the taboo kingdom of Lo Manthang, one of the last instances of living Tibetan culture.
Dolpa Circuit:
Until about thirty years back, not much was known regarding Dolpa in the exterior globe. The province was closed to outsiders until 1989 & to this sate only gets a fraction of the tourists visiting Nepal for trekking. It is an unbelievable natural & cultural experience for those carving for a little isolated adventure. Nepal's deepest lake, Phoksundo (145 m), lies in the dry high altitude terrain of Dolpa & is one of the most gorgeous natural traveler destinations in Nepal.
Rara Lake Trek:
Well, Rara National Park might be the tinniest National Park in the country but it is also home to the largest lake in Nepal – Rara Lake.
This isolated province in western Nepal can be demanding to reach as the road conditions & flight departures are subject to climatic disturbance in the lowlands. While not as arid as Mustang & Upper Dolpo, the crystal water of Rara Lake & the enclosing alpine forests, spotted with strange Himalayan flora that can be seen only during the summer time, making it a valuable tour even if you may encounter the sporadic showers.
In spite of the natural splendor on offer in this isolate area of Nepal not many travelers discover their way here, in fact, there're more bird species around Rara Lake than annual tourists. Himalayan trekking in Nepal at its very best here at the Rara Lake.
