A Trekking Guide to Makalu: Yeti Foot Trail, Lumbasumba and Arun Valley
No Customer Reviews
The trek to Makalu Base Camp is a sensational experience that has been ignored for so long by so many. Where else in the Himalaya can one stand just a few hundred metres below 3800m of soaring rock, ice and glaciers? Unlike Everest and Kanchenjunga, which are both viewed from a few kilometres away from the actual faces, Makalu towers directly above the base camp. Makalu is simply stunning at sunset, a gigantic sweeping face of magical majesty. Words cannot convey the sense of awe and raw power that nature has bestowed on this unique mountain. A new route, the Yeti Foot Trail, has been forged through the pristine, deeply cut canyon of the Barun Khola to entice the adventurous. The aim of this trekking guide to Makalu is to introduce the different treks and mountain areas. It highlights the choices for those willing to rough it a bit more than in other areas of Nepal. The most secretive jewels of the Himalaya are rarely seen easily, shining only for those who make the effort to discover their hidden wealth.
