Kanchanjunga region lies in the eastern part of Nepal. Kanchanjunga translated in english is “The Five Treasures of the Snow” which represents the five prosperties of God, which are gold, silver, gems, grain and holy books.

Mt. Kanchanjunga 8586 meters tall, which makest it the world’s third highest mountain. Kanchanjunga trek offers an exciting experience in the Himalayas of Nepal. Kanchanjunga trek is a strenuous trek which has Tea houses and hotels throught the trail. Kanchanjunga trek starts from the tropical lowlands with dense humid forests slowly gaining altitude till we reach the sub-alpine shrubs and glaciers. The beautiful Rhodendron forests in the temperate region is one of the most beautiful aspects of this terk.

Kanchanjunga region include temperate broadleaf and mixed forests like oaks, fir birch, maple, willow and so on. Alpine grasses and shrubs and medicinal plants and herbs are found on the higher plateaus. Many endangered mammal species like musk deer, snow leopard, Himalayan Tahr, wild dog, sloth bear, civet, Himalayan black bear, red panda, goral and reptiles like rat snake and Russell’s viper are the important animal species found in this region.

People here are very  friendly and welcoming. People of different casts like, Rai, Limbu and Sherpa and others live here making a home to rich culture and tradition. Most people  here follow Buddhist and Hindu religion with the blend of their own rites and rituals.

Kanchanjunga region is easily accessible through flight or by bus or jeep. We fly to Biratnagar and Suketar in Taplejung of Nepal from Kathmandu.

Spring and the autumn are the best seasons to visit the Kanchanjunga while the monsoon can be quiet harsh and the winter is very cold as well.
