Jomsom Trek |
| |
| The route follows the Kaligandaki valley
between the soaring peaks of annapurna and Dhaulagiri
and finally emerges to the north of the main Himalaya
range on the dry desert like Tibetan plateau. The Kaligandaki
river basin, the junction of the Indian plain and Tibetan
highland, includes wide varieties of races, religion,
culture, climate, and topography hence creating an interesting
Trekking course. The final destination is the holy temple
of Muktinath, a further days walk beyond Jomsom. Muktinath
is a famous pilgrimage site for Buddhist as well as
Hindus where you will see Tibetan traders as well as
Sadhus from far south of India. You will gain the maximum
attitude 3710m at this place yet altitude sickness is
not a problem because of gradual ascent. From Jomsom,
you can make your return trip by flight or you will
have to retrace your steps down the Kaligandaki Valley.
