Dolpo is located inside the Shey Phoksundo National Park of mid-western Nepal, behind the north side of the Dhaulagiri massif towards the Tibetan Plateau. Cut off by the series of very high passes, closed by snow most of the year; Dolpo remains truly an isolated corner of Nepal. Time has stood still here for centuries, so has the inhabitants way, since time immemorial. The finely preserved ecosystem encompasses a wild and wonderful variety of plants and wildlife, including the blue sheep and snow leopards, A trek through Dolpo to Mustang is an experience not easily forgotten.
We travel in the restricted area of this region from Shey to Lo Manthang. We need to have a special permit to do this route.
Since the snow can make passes uncross able as early as October. We started at the end August and had some expected post-monsoon rain, but this was rewarded by green fields and lush vegetation. It takes about 4 weeks walking days (6-8 hours a day). You will spend most of the time above 3,500m and cross passes above 5,000m, but technically the hiking is easy.
