Rolwaling Valley Trek

Trip Introduction
The myth of the legendary snow creature Yeti is said to have made its home in Rolwaling valley. This, however, is not the only myth that surrounds this unique trek. Rolwaling, also known by “the grave” by the Sherpas justifies its name as this trek is hailed as one of the most peculiar and difficult in the entire Everest region. The difficulty rating for this trek is rather high and the trekkers are expected to be fit physically as well mentally. There are many who have failed to complete this trek.
The trek starts from Jagat after 8 hours ride from Kathmandu and after that, the trekkers are expected to walk for around 5-7 hours per day. From jagat, the journey continues to Simigaun, Dokhang, Beding, Na Gaon. The travelers will also visit Tso Rolpa Lake (4500m ) and Yalung Ri Base camp (5067 m) which is the highest point of the trek.
The traveler will have acclimatization day at Beding (3740 m). Acclimatization is very important as your body needs to adapt the altitude. We, here, at Bomzan Nepal Treks and Expedition will make sure every trekker will have great experience exploring this beautiful Rolwaling Valley.
