NEPAL MAKALU THREE COLS ADVENTURE

A high mountain traverse from Makalu Base Camp across Barun glacier to
Khumbu across 6000+ m East and West cols - 28 days!

This is an absolute classic adventure right into the heart of the wildest
Himalayas where only a few people dare to venture into. The trip makes a
high mountain traverse across Barun Glacier from Makalu base camp
emerging into Hinku valley and finally into the high alpine valley of Khumbu
across the most challenging East Col (6100 m) and West Col (6135m). A
very high and demanding yet truly spectacular route where you are treated
with the best views of the 8000-ers Cho Oyo (8153m) Lhotse (8501m),
Everest (8848m), Makalu (8475m) and Kangchenjunga (8586m). An
extremely wild trek that involves a sustained period at high altitude with
some very steep slopes.
The trip is only intended to the people with alpine experience and good
stamina.
