Xtreme Climbers Kanchenjunga Base Camp trekking, a wonderful and mind-blowing adventure, probably the one and only trek that leads you to visit both South and North base camps of the same mountains in one single adventure around the whole Himalayas range. Kanchenjunga base camp trekking leads you to a spectacular country around the far eastern Himalaya of Nepal within the shade of the mighty Khumbakarna Himalaya range of mountains where the world 3rd highest Mt. Kanchenjunga at 8,586 m / 28,169 ft high is located and straddles the border between Nepal and Sikkim (a small state of North East India).
Kanchenjunga is actually known by its local native name as “Kanchendzonga” of Tibetan origin language, meaning a mountain with five Jewels that stands towering as Nepal's second-highest peak.
The first ascent of Mt. Kanchenjunga in 1955 by British Expeditions led by the late Sir George Band using the South route near Yarlung glacier.
A fascinating adventure to Kanchenjunga base camps with variations of landscapes and scenery during the long walks within high hills of villages of Kirat tribes known as Rai and Limbu and further higher where Sherpa and Bhotia people reside. Our adventure begins with flight to low land of eastern Nepal and then heading to higher cooler alpine areas through lovely Ilam towns and villages with huge wide tea gardens to reach our starting point of trekking at Sukhetar.
Walk leads first visiting Kanchenjunga South base camp through remote farm villages and dense deep forest and towards Yarlung glacier filled with moraine, ice and then heading towards further north with super views of Mt. Janu and other peaks of the Kanchenjunga range. Slowly our enters an arid dry country reaching at Pang-Pema at 5,065 m high within Kanchenjunga North Base Camp, here with time to explore the isolated and beautiful mountainous area facing massive fields of ice and glaciers, then heading back on an alternative route to reach at Sukhetar and Ilam for the drive back to Bhadrapur, where a scenic flight brings you at Kathmandu after a magnificent adventure on Kanchenjunga base camp trekking.
