Trek Duration: 31 days Best Season: Autumn (Sep-Nov) and Spring (Mar-
May) Starting from: Kathmandu Ending at : Kathmandu Grade: Moderate Highest access of the trek: (6100 m) top of the
Dromo Peak Average Temperature: -5 to 15 Celsius Culture: Newar, Gurung, Braman, Chhetris, Sherpa Mode of trekking tour: Camping Himalayan sights: Kumbakarna, Kanchenjunga and
Rathong Most Attraction of the trek: Trekking route in
the real off touristy area
Dromo Peak Climbing goes via Kanchanjunga which sits
astride the Nepal/Sikkim border only a few miles from
Tibet. This route was opened to the trekkers in 1988,
though people have trekked in the area in connection
with mountaineering expedition since the turn of the
century.
Kanchenjunga is along way from Kathmandu and the nearest
road and airports are along way from the mountains. Our
long trek here climbs from the intensively cultivated
hillsides of the Nepal Midlands, populated by the Rai
and Limbu tribes, towards the peaks of Jannu and Khabru
and the great wall of Kumbakarna, Kanchenjunga and
Rathong, passing on the way through some of the finest
high mountain scenery anywhere. Until very recently this
was a restricted area, so this is an ideal trek for
those who already know Nepal and want to get away from
the better known areas and visit a remoter part where
few foreigners have penetrated.

In addition to the above list of suggested
trekking equipment, you should take along with
various items of mountaineering tools. For any
trip which has crossed by steep, snow-covered
ground, or which has included section of glacier
travel, it might be necessary for the group
roping up as a safety precaution. To facilitate
this process of roping up, you will need to
maintain a minimum requirement, a climbing
harness, a climbing sling and two locking
carabineers. Plastic mountaineering boots, a
mountaineering ice axe and a pair of crampons
with front points are the other items of
equipment, which are required for our trekking
peak trips. (Please note: Our recommendation
that you take no more than 33 pounds of trekking
equipment DOES NOT include your plastic boots,
ice axe, crampons or harness/carabineers. During
the trek, climbing hardware will be carried
separately from your personal trek bag in-group
bags until needed).
An explanation of the equipment that you will
need
Day packs for climbing trips
3000-4000 cubic inches. For climbing trips, you
will be required to carry more warm clothing
during the climbs and also your personal
climbing gear. For this reason, you will need a
slightly bigger daypack than for a trekking-only
trip. If you have any questions about gear,
please do not hesitate to call our office for
advice.
Equipment Rental
In order to minimize your expense outlay for
trekking and climbing equipment you may never
use again, we offer a wide range of equipment
available for rent for the duration of your
trip. All rental equipment can be picked up from
