HONGU VALLEY TREK

 

 

This valley is the backyard of Everest. The climax of the Honku Valley trek is its remote glaciers and a formidable pass which require tough muscle. The journey is strenuous enough to merit the adjective "off beaten track" in the truest sense. Few villages are seen and there is no definite track to follow. You need to be in good physical condition and know the elementary of climbing experiences of Himalaya. Mera peak (647m) climbing is an additional experience in this trek.
