Makalu Base Camp Trekking
Makalu Base Camp Trekking

Makalu (8,481m), the fifth highest mountain of the world lies on the Nepal and Tibet border. The trek provides a high mountain feel with sherpa settlements and some outstanding vistas of major peaks to the east of Everest. From Tumlingtar we trek a long way up the Arun River valley past some beautiful farmhouses along with small temples and gompas and extremely colourful vegetation and flowers. Many different ethnic groups live here in a way not seen in many other areas of Nepal. We continue on to Seduwa and Num to cross the Barun La (4110 meters) to enter the upper Barun Khola Valley for close up views of Makalu (8463 meters) and Chamlang (7317 meters).

The trekking is not particulary difficult although one should bare in mind it is a long trek

Great Trip with Champawati Tours & Travel,

I had the pleasure of Champawati Tours & Travel in January 2006 to Trek to The Annapurna Base Camp which took around two week this included white water rafting on our way to Pokhara which was fantastic.
