Renjola Pass Trekking

Overview

Trip Information

Adventure Pilgrims Trekking has explored many new areas of trekking and it is one of the less tourist trekking routes in Everest region to Renjola Pass Trekking.

The Everest or the Khumbu region is justifiably the most famous of all the trekking and mountain regions. Populated by the Sherpas, the attraction of this area are the majestic mountains, the high mountain villages, charming monasteries and the congenial people. This area includes the highest mountain in the world, Mount Everest (8,848 m.) and many other peaks of altitudes of 8000m. or more, such as Lhotse, Cho Oyo and Makalu.

Trekking to Renjola Pass Trek is a very popular visit among tourists. A little off the main trekking trail, Thamo and Thame offer visits to untouched Sherpa culture where people have maintained the traditional way of life. You can experience the local culture through home stay accommodations. Cultural groups perform shows for tourists on request. In addition, you can explore the jungle near the settlement sheltering endangered wildlife species, like musk deer and pheasants. The mainstay of the local economy here is tourism.

You begin today’s trek from Lukla following a gentle climb up the mountainside on the left bank of the Dudh Koshi river. Nupla (5885m) can be seen in the distance on the opposite bank, and is a peak atop the Kongde Ridge. You descend a mountainside path that merges into your route to Everest, with views to a valley to your right; and at its far end, Kusum Kang (6367m.)
