Paldor Peak Climbing-16 days

Paldor peak is located at the Ganesh Himal’s southeastern end. Bharange is another name for it. It is located to the northeast of Kathmandu. It is located at the intersection of Tiru and Karpu. It is located at a height of 5,903m/19,367ft. It is the ideal combination of trekking and climbing. It is a well-known peak climbing destination. Climbing isn’t all that difficult. We can see Machhapuchhre, the Annapurna range, Mt. Everest, Lhotse, Nuptse, and Shisapangma.

The trek’s main highlight is the summit of Paldor Peak.  The trail travels through Langtang National Park, a breathtaking landscape rich in flora and fauna, as well as yak pasture land. There are many plant and animal species to see, including the Himalayan Thar, Gaur, Musk deer, Monkeys, and others. You’ll walk through forests of Spanish oak, blue pine, and various Rhododendron species. You will also visit several Tamang villages and learn about their culture and way of life.

The 15-day trek begins with a seven- to eight-hour drive from Kathmandu to Syabrubesi. Following that, we’ll travel to the beautiful Tamang village, where we’ll learn about their culture and walk-through dense forest and across a suspension bridge. After arriving in Gatlang, we’ll make our way up to the sacred lake of Parvati Kunda. On our way to Somdang, we’ll pass through a Rhododendron Forest and see zinc, copper, crystal, and ruby mines. We will acclimate to Lari before departing for Paldor Base Camp. We will then hike to High Camp, where we will have pre-climbing training. Continue to the summit of Paldor Peak before descending to Base Camp and then the final descent to Syabrubesi.
