Kanchenjunga peaks

Kanchenjunga

Kanchenjunga region perched on the eastern part of Nepal bordering with Sikkim, India is off the beaten path awaiting for the trekkers and adventurers to stun with its natural beauty on rustic form. Region enveloped by lush Kanchenjunga conservation area; haven for diverse animal and bird species with rich flora and fauna, is dominated by the gigantic mountain Kanchenjunga; the highest mountain in the world.

Trekking to the less explored Kanchenjunga region takes you to the land of tropical forests of rhododendron, alpine pasture, monasteries, stupas along with the experience of graceful culture and tradition of ethnic community Rai and Limbu who are very open and friendly that is furnished through their overwhelming hospitality.
