On the far eastern border of Nepal lies Mt.
Kanchenjunga (8586m), the third highest peak in the world. The valley
approaching the mountain base camp has been opened to trekking, specifically
for organized treks. The long trek to the lap of Kangchenjunga takes one
through some of the country's richest and most pristine forests. The region is
quite uninhabited, so the visitor must bring along all food and camping
equipment. Most groups fly in and out of Taplejung, which requires a plane
change from Biratnagar. |

You could also walk to Taplejung from Basantapur which
takes about three days. Two separate routes head northeastwards from Taplejung,
one to the North Base Camp, the other to the South Base Camp. These routes can
