                                                   TREKKING IN DOLPA REGION


Trekking in the Dolpo Region has only been permitted since mid-1989. The region lies to the west of the Kali Gandaki Valley. Dolpo is located inside the Shey- Phoksundo National Park in mid-western Nepal, behind the Dhaulagiri massif, towards the Tibetan plateau. The region offers opportunities to visit ancient villages, high passes, beautiful Lakes, isolated Buddhist monasteries, and also to experience the vast array of wildlife inhabiting the region including Blue Sheep, Mountain Goat, Jackal, Wolf, and the legendary Snow Leopard. Most treks into Dolpo take from 14 to 30 days. The best time to trek here is towards the end of monsoon season September to November. Shorter Dolpo treks are possible by flying into the airstrip at Jumla.
