Trekking in Tibet

Trekking in Tibet

Tibet is more vast, exotic, and inspiring than anyone yet to visit can imagine. It contains the world's highest lakes and greatest river systems, tallest ice mountains and spectacular hot springs, forested valleys and even volcanoes. Much of the flora and fauna are unique on earth. And the light! The luminosity of a pollution-free landscape as close to the stars as people can comfortably live... has to be seen. The fantasies that Tibet has inspired are not fictitious; they are real. It remains the jewel in the lotus, a distant horizon, a lost world, Shangri-la, the realm of fascination and wonder rightly called the Hidden Kingdom in the heart of south central Asia.

This inaccessible land have lots of possibilities of trekking routes for the adventure seeker. Whether it is a pilgrimage trek or a mountain expedition, Tibet offers trekking trips from short one day to month long as per ones requirement. But the treks are not feasible in the wintertime as the temperature goes very low (-30 to -40ºF) and also the days are much shorter.
