Adventure Rolwaling Trekking
Rolwaling meaning ‘the furrow left by the plough’ is a quiet mountain and steep-walled valley as its name suggest. It is rugged yet beautiful area rarely visited unlike its neighboring Himalayas of Khumbu and offers lots of mountaineering challenges to the adventure. The trek to Rolwaling involves crossing of high pass Tashi Labtsa (5,755m) and the climbing of Parcharmo (6,273m) and it is a must to equip oneself with mountaineering gear (to be brought by the trekkers). The trail starts from Charikote, which is a day’s drive away from Kathmandu then it leads up along the Tamba Kosi river banks under the shadow of Mt. Gauri Shanker (7,145m), the holy mountain to Bhote Kosi river. From Simigaon, the trail turns right along Rolwaling Khola running deeply below ahead and parting from the old trade route to Tibet . Views of Melungtse (7,181m) appear proceeding further through the village of Beding (3,690m) with its monastery. From the village of Na (4,183m) the trail ascends through grass-covered valley to Tso Rolpa then traversing the moraine on the north side of the valley onto the snout of the Tram Bau Glacier, which feeds the Rolwaling river. The route up Prachormo is highly crevasseous. After assault, the trail drops to Thame, from where the route along Bhote Kosi river leads to Namche Bazaar and onto Lukla for flight to Kathmandu.
