LUMBA SUMBA PASS TREK
Nepal'best Undiscovered Trek
- Duration 22 Days
- Difficulty Level Medium
- Includes Equipment, Drinks, Accommodations, Food
An unprecedented exploration trip in the little-known region of eastern Nepal, between Kanchenjunga and Makalu, you cross the Lumba Samba pass, out of any conventional itinerary. A real adventure for enthusiasts of Nepal. A journey out of time.
Through a rhododendron forest, you go up the Nango La pass at just over 4700 m, frequented by Tibetans who trade between Olangchungola and Ghunsa. Yak caravans regularly cross this pass, which is a fairly difficult trail.
Your last passage at altitude will undoubtedly be the strongest memory of the trek. We do not know of any other pass which offers a panorama of two very distinct massifs with summits of more than 8000 m. The double pass of Lumba Samba (5100 m) is truly one of the most beautiful places in the Himalayas. The inhabitants of Olangchungola will explain to us that Lumba Samba means new place; insisting on the write error of maps and sites. We must therefore say Lumba Samba and not Lumba Sumba.
