The classic walk has clear cut goal
to see Mt Everest. Many people find the sights along the way rival
the climatic views of the world’s highest mountains Solukhumbhu,
the home of legendary sherpas. the northern part of solukhumbu area
is encompassed in the Everest national park, which was established
to protect the fragile environment of this alpine region. To the
east of Everest national park is the Makalu Barun national park,
a remote and wild stretch of mountain peaks and deep densely forested
valleys. To the west is Rolwaling valley, a well protected microcosm
of cultures and ecology. Beside Everest there are three other 8000m
peaks Lhotse(8516m) Makalu(8463m), Choyo(8201m)and in addition numerous
other peaks of lesser altitude but no less stunning. Add to this
glacial lakes, rhododendron forests, native flora and fauna, traditional
villages and ancient Buddhist monasteries, all go to make this region
a spectacular destination.
People and culture
Sherpas are main ethnic group who lives around in this region. This
is their heart land and their influence is to be seen everywhere
from their traditional dress to their distinctive houses and monasteries.
There are also minorities of various other groups. Like Rai, Tamang,
Braman and Chhetri.
Flora and Fauna
Up to 4000m you will find dense stands of forest including pine,
oak and the spectacular flowering rhododendrons. In spring all the
hills are riot of colours. There is a good chance of seeing wildlife,
mostly of them are birds. If you are lucky, you may will see musk
deer, barking deer and Himalayan Tahr. |
