World's third highest mountain at 8598 m , Kanchanjunga is the least known and least visited yet one of the most beautiful among the high mountains.The reasons for Kanchanjunga to be less visited could be being opened for visitors of late and the route to the base camp is rather long and needs a fully supported walk.
The trek is rather strenous but the rewards are tremendous.Along the trek you visit virgin Sherpa , Rai and Limbu villages , beautiful monasteries, remote wild valleys and alpine pastures.The views of Kanchanjunga and othe peak are really superb .The trek starts at Suketar airstrip in Eastern nepal and ends at Basantapur near the town of Dharan.
