Putha Himal Expedition Nepal

After you arrive in Nepal, our representative will pick you up from the Tribhuwan International Airport and transfer you to the hotel.

This is a rest for re-arranging your gears. So, you may spend your days hiring or buying the necessary equipment.

In the morning, we will have a flight for an hour from Kathmandu to Nepalgunj. After reaching there, we will check into the hotel.

Today, we will also be taking a flight from Nepalgunj to Jhupal. It is a short and scenic flight. We can witness the mountain view from the plane.

After landing at Jhupal, we will take a ride to Dunai village. It is an off-road ride offering the farming land view. We will pass the Dagibora village before Dunai.

The actual trek begins today at Dunai. Mule will transport all our trekking and climbing supplies. It is a moderate ascending and descending trail through the thin jungle of pine trees.

Our kitchen crews will prepare lunch at Base Ghat, and we will have it there. Afterwards, we will cross two suspension bridges over the Bheri River, offering a beautiful view of the hills, and finally reach Tarakot.

It is a gentle ascending walk along the agricultural farm in the beginning, and the walk goes up through a forest.

We will have lunch at Laisicap. Then the continuation of our trek will take us to Musikhola. En route views are small peaks like Samjang and the Dongari range.

It is again a gentle ascending and descending walk to Kankot through the forest. We will have both lunch and dinner at Kankot

It is a rest day, aiming to acclimatize our bodies. So, we will be engaging in the hiking activity to Kankot Village and exploring the untouched culture. It takes almost two hours to get there. En route, we can see the grazing yak.

From today, the yak will be our means of transportation to carry the gear. It is a trek through the forest trail in the beginning, and grassy land with a slopy ridge. So, there is no possible place to cook. Therefore, we will have a packed lunch and enjoy it like a picnic. During walking, we can see the Dhaulagiri range and the Gurja Himal.

The trail gets challenging from today because it is an upward trail on a mix of grassy and moraine. We will be provided with pack lunch. We can explore the hills, Putha Himal, and other unnamed peaks on the way.

It is a full rest day. So, we will be engaging in maintaining our personal hygiene, such as showering. The Hot water bucket shower will be available.

Today, we will be engaging in training for almost an hour. So, we will learn for using the climbing gears, ascending, descending, safety, and security.

Then, we will have rest.

Though it is a climb, like trekking. We will wear the alpine shoes. The trail is mostly moraine and sometimes soft snow due to the weather. The Camp I showcases the views of the Putha Himal ranges, but not a climbing mountain.

Today, we will climb using the gears. It is an easy ascending walk on the snowy trail. We will reach the halfway point to Camp II and come down to Camp I.

We will be descending to base camp following the previous route.

It is a complete rest day.

It is another full rest day for the mountaineers, and preparing the gear for the Nepalese.

After having lunch, we will climb to Camp I.

In the morning, almost at 5 am, we will begin our journey again because of the hot sunlight. So, we will have a packed lunch en route and reach Camp II almost at 2 pm. Then, we will take a rest for the rest of the day.

We will start our expedition to the Putha Himal early, almost at 2 am. It is a gradual ascending walk till the summit. We will reach the top of the Putha Himal by 8 am in the morning.

From the summit, we can explore the very close views of Dongari Himal, Samjang, Gurja Himal, Dhaulagiri II, Konabon Peak, Putha Himal Summit, and other unknown peaks. It is like a heaven on earth. We will spend almost an hour there if the weather allows, and get down to Camp II along the same way.

We will be descending to Base Camp following the same route.

We will go down to Yak Kharka through the same route.

We will go back to Kankot.

We will go back to Tarakot.

We will trek back to Dunai and drive back to Jhupal.

We will have an early morning flight back to Nepalgunj and an evening flight back to Kathmandu.

Our representative will leave you at the airport almost 3 hours before your flight time.
