The Kanchenjunga Circuit Trek is a least trekked area located on the eastern border of Nepal. The trails of this trek lead you to Mt. Kanchenjunga (8,586 m), the third-highest peak in the world. Although it was opened to trekkers in 1988, it remains underrated to this day. The two primary reasons might be its remoteness and its being a restricted trekking area. There are two base camps in the region, the North and South base camps. The Kanchenjunga Circuit Trek covers both treks simultaneously, circling the area. The rugged trail, remoteness, and opportunities for camping make this trek an ideal destination for adventure seekers.

For the Kanchenjunga Circuit Trek, most groups fly to Badrapur from Kathmandu and then drive to Taplejung. The trekking start point is Taplejung, and the ending point is Khebang. Two separate routes head northeastward from Taplejung, one to the north base camp and the other to the south base camp. These routes can be combined into a circuit, making the Kanchenjunga Circuit Trek.

Initially, you will head towards the North Base Camp and return to cross the Sele La Pass (4,290 m) and reach the South Base Camp. You will return via the Tortong route to get to Khebung before driving to Bhadrapur. The Kanchenjunga Trek is one of the less crowded treks, making it suitable for those seeking solitude while trekking. Read along to know more about the Kanchenjunga Circuit Trek.

The Manaslu Circuit trek goes around Manaslu, the eighth-highest mountain in the world (8,156 m/26,758 ft). The trek to remote Manaslu begins with a drive from Kathmandu to Arughat, followed by a journey to Soti Khola, which takes a full day before you reach the trekking area to start your trek. The trek opened in 1992 and has since gained popularity, largely due to its amazing natural beauty and pristine surroundings. The trek takes place near the Nepal-Tibet border; therefore, you can see a blend of Hindu and Buddhist cultures along the trail. You will hike through nice forests filled with rhododendron, pine, cedar, birch, and juniper trees, as well as beautiful meadows.

As you continue along the Manaslu route, you will notice a marked change in the land formation, as you will see distinct river gorges cut by the Budhi Gandaki River. The suspension bridges will sway slightly over the roaring river as you cross from one village to the next, both villages on their respective hill sides. With each turn you take, the sheer beauty of the snow-capped peaks before you, of Manaslu included, will leave you speechless with awe and admiration. Prayer flags will blow with the wind, carrying mantras and blessings to the next valley as you make your way through, and there are old monasteries that leave you seeing and understanding how important this part of the world is in relation to growth, spirituality, and connection. Additionally, it is mandatory to bring microspikes or crampons for the trek. For connectivity, we recommend using an NTC SIM, as it provides better coverage in remote areas. Manaslu Circuit with Serang Gompa Trek is another option that you can explore.

Annapurna I (8,091 meters) is the first ascended mountain in Nepal, and it is also the tenth highest mountain in the world. Annapurna Base Camp Trek is the journey that takes you to the foot of this very mountain. It lies in the Annapurna Region and is one of the most popular trekking destinations in the world. Since the Everest Base Camp Trek is difficult, many people opt for the ABC trek. What makes this trek unique is that you will experience the natural amphitheater located in the mountains.

Starting from Nayapul, the trek goes through multiple Gurung and Magar villages, adding a cultural angle to the trek. You will closely observe the local culture as you experience their hospitality. Besides, since this trek lies inside the Annapurna Conservation Area, you will get to witness a variety of birds and rhododendrons. It is a moderate trek, but it can also become challenging if you are not properly prepared. That said, it is one such trek that seamlessly blends culture, nature, and adventure, a feat that few treks can offer.
