Jugal Himal Trek (12 Days)
To the northeast of Kathmandu lies a chain of peaks called Jugal Himal, which includes Dorje Lakpa (6966 m), Madiya (6257 m), and Phurbi Chyachu (6637 m). This trek starts from the large bazaar of Chautaara (1410 m), descending to the Balephi Khola and then follows a ridge to Bhirav Kund. This is a remote and unfrequented region, despite its proximity to Kathmandu. Treks in this area involve a lot of climbing on narrow trails. There are a few villages and no hotels on this route, and water is scarce on this ridge.
