Tsho Rolpa Rolwaling valley Trek – 10 Days

Trip Introduction

The largest lake of Nepal Tsho Rolpa is located in Rolwaling valley, Dolakha District at an altitude of 4,580m/ 15,030 ft. It is also the part of “Gaurisankar Conservation Area project (GCAP)”. The Rolwaling area is located between the Langtang and Everest ranges. Rolwaling is a steep Himalayan valley protected by Gaurishankar’s snow peak. Because of its remoteness, the Rolwaling valley is renowned as “the Grave”. It is unspoiled Trekking Trail.

Tsho Rolpa Lake, the trek’s highlight, is located between tiny hills and the surrounding mountains, creating a unique view. The calm atmosphere surrounding the lake also makes the journey worthwhile. Because the path leads you near the Tibetan border, there is a strong Buddhist influence in the area. However, you may witness Brahmin, Chhetri, and Sherpa culture and lifestyle. The trip offers trekkers to experience the Rolwaling valley’s Sherpa culture as it passes through communities like as Chhetchhet and Beding. The path is primarily made up of waterfalls, rivers, Mani walls, rice fields, and meadows that all work together to make the walk unforgettable.

Your 10-day Tsho rolpa trek will begin with a journey from Kathmandu to Simi Gaun. The drive will take between 7 to 8 hours. Simigaun is the starting point for your trek to Tsho Rolpa. The Rolwaling walk goes up along the Upper Tama Koshi river bank, providing views of the Mountains River. We will pass through Sherpa, Tamang, and Chhetri communities, experiencing their traditional ways of life. You will be rewarded with breath-taking views of Gaurishankar Himal as you travel through the small settlements of Rolwaling valley. Although the remote hike to Tsho Rolpa Lake is challenging, it is filled with stunning natural features that make the trek worthwhile.
