The Lower Dolpo Trekking is an exceptional Himalayan adventure through Nepal’s untamed "Wild West." Set in isolation behind the Dhaulagiri range, Lower Dolpo gained global fame through Eric Valli’s Oscar-nominated movie 'Himalaya' (Caravan). This trek blends turquoise alpine lakes, dramatic gorges, arid trans-Himalayan desert landscapes, and ancient agro-pastoral cultures operating largely as they have for centuries.
Lower Dolpo is a regulated area within Shey Phoksundo National Park, requiring proper permits and group travel arrangements:
