Dolpo Trek

Lower Dolpo Trek via Kagmara La Pass Overview

The Dolpo Trek via Kagmara La Pass is an extraordinary high-altitude adventure through the untouched wilderness of Lower Dolpo. Crossing three challenging Himalayan passes—Kagmara La (5,115 m), Baga La (5,175 m), and Numa La (5,318 m)—this trek blends remote trans-Himalayan desert landscapes with pristine mountain culture, deep turquoise lakes, and rich wildlife.

Jumla Entry, High Passes & Panoramic Himalayan Views

Starting from Jumla, the trail leads through historic villages, rhododendron forests, and scenic river valleys before ascending into remote high-pass territory:

  • Kagmara La Pass (5,115 m) & Kagmara Ri (5,370 m): Cross the dramatic Kagmara La adorned with vibrant Tibetan prayer flags, with optional ascents rewarding views of Mt. Dhaulagiri, Annapurna, Api Himal (7,132 m), Saipal (7,031 m), and Kanjiroba Himal.
  • Shey Phoksundo Lake & National Park: Reach Nepal's deepest and most stunning alpine lake, Phoksundo Lake (3,610 m), situated within Shey Phoksundo National Park (3,555 sq. km).
  • Three High Passes Traverse: Conagurate the full circuit by crossing Baga La and Numa La passes into the sacred culture of Dho Tarap valley.
  • Rich Himalayan Biodiversity: Habitat for rare Himalayan wildlife, including Blue Sheep, wild foxes, and elusive snow leopards.
