Nepal’s far eastern region, which borders Tibet to the north and Sikkim (India) to the south, is home to some of the most stunning and remote landscapes in the world. At the heart of this awe-inspiring area stands Kanchenjunga, the third highest mountain on Earth, rising to an impressive 8,586 meters (28,169 feet) above sea level.

The Kanchenjunga range is a place of raw natural beauty, with snow-capped peaks, dense forests, and alpine meadows.

Situated between the popular Langtang and Everest regions, the Rolwaling Valley is steeped in folklore and rugged beauty. Known locally as "The Grave" due to its steep, sheer cliff walls that shadow the valley floor, it is famously the rumored home of the Yeti. The trail here is arduous and raw, appealing to the true adventurer.

Dominating the skyline is the sacred mountain Gauri Shankar (7,134m), while the high glacial lake of Tsho Rolpa creates a dramatic contrast of turquoise blue against the grey moraine. The crossing of the Tashi Lapcha Pass connects this mystical valley to the Khumbu, offering one of the most technical trekking passes in the Himalayas.

The crown jewel of the Himalayas, the Khumbu region is home to Sagarmatha (Mt. Everest), rising 8,848m into the stratosphere. Beyond the highest point on Earth, this region is the heartland of the Sherpa people, renowned for their resilience and mountaineering prowess.

To the east of Khumbu lies Makalu Barun National Park, a pristine sanctuary that is home to Makalu, the fifth highest peak on Earth, standing at an impressive 8,485 meters.
