Kanchenjunga Lumba Sumba Pass Trek 

The Kanchenjunga circuit Lumba Sumba Pass trek is a comprehensive 30-day journey that presents a challenging yet unforgettable trekking experience, filled with adventure and rewards. It stands as Nepal's premier trekking route for those eager to immerse themselves in the authentic Nepalese trekking experience for an entire month. This trek connects the Makalu trek and the Kanchenjunga trek via the Lumba Sumba Pass, which reaches an elevation of 5177 meters. The trek commences in Kathmandu with an exhilarating flight to Tumlingtar. Upon landing in Tumlingtar, the journey continues to Num village through a scenic Jeep drive, which serves as the gateway to both the Manaslu Base Camp Trek and the Kanchenjunga Lumba Sumba Trek. Subsequently, the adventure takes you through sunlit villages, diverse landscapes, and various cultural communities at lower elevations. As you ascend to higher altitudes, you will encounter different vegetation, unique landscapes, reduced greenery, and breathtaking views of the Makalu and Kanchenjunga mountain ranges, along with glaciers and stunning vistas. The trek culminates at the summit of the Lumba Sumba Pass, at 5177 meters, offering the most rewarding views of mountains, glaciers, and expansive, lush green valleys. You will have the opportunity to explore Olangchung Gola, one of the most remote villages in eastern Nepal, and experience its authentic culture and way of life. The trek then leads to Gunsa, a well-known village along the Kanchenjunga Circuit Trek. Following this, the trail guides you to the Kanchenjunga Base Camp, where you can explore the North and South Base Camps before returning to Birtamode and Bhadrapur. Himalayan Trekking Path Pvt. Ltd. is the leading local company in Nepal for all remote treks, including Manaslu, Everest, Annapurna, Dolpo, Kanchenjunga, and Makalu treks.
