Kanchanjunga South Face Trek 22 Days
Nepal
opened the Kanchenjunga are to trekkers in 1988, though people have trekked
in the area in connection with mountaineering expeditions
since the turn of
the century, Kanchenjunga is a long way from Kathmandu, and the nearest
roads and air ports area a long way from the mountain. You can trek either
to the north or south Kanchanjunga base camp, but it takes luck,
determination and a lot of time to visit both sides of the peak. The
northern side is particularly remote: it takes almost two weeks of walking
to get to the base camp at Pang Pema.
Kanchenjunga is on the border of Nepal and the Indian state of Sikkim, so a circuit of the mountain is politically impossible. The next best alternative is to visit both the north and south sides of the mountain form the Nepal side: you need to be equipped for a high pass crossing and have a minimum of four weeks if you pass crossing does not work: then it's a long way around.
