Overview

This is an outstanding trek in the eastern region of Nepal which offers a combination of rich culture heritage, unsurpassed beauty and biological diversity. The trail takes you from the steamy lowlands of Tumlingtar on the Arun River , through one of the least frequented areas of Nepal , to the base camp of Makalu [8475m]. The trail follows the beautiful Barun river valley in the Makalu Barun National Park , crossing Shipton pass at 4127 meter before arriving at Makalu Base Camp [5000m], from here views of the south face of Makalu , as well as Everest and Lhotse are truly spectacular. The Arun valley is also a home of rare species of various Birds which are now only found in Nepal .

Anyone in good shape and has previous experience of trekking can make this fairly challenging trek anytime in March to May and September to early December.
