Our 21 days Kharta Valley trek program is a combination of cultural trip to Holy city of Lhasa and then trekking in Kharta Valley which is an isolated region of Tibet. This tour is perfect for those who are looking for culture along with wilderness trek in Tibet. In Lhasa we will visit some of the important cultural and historical sites then we drive along the Tibetan plateau to remote Kharta Valley. Enroute we will visit some of the old Tibetan town like Gyantse, Xigatse and Tingri. This is also good way to approach Kharta Valley trek as it gives good time for acclimatization.
Kharta valley trek starts from Kharta valley 140 km south-east from Xegar. From there we head for the eastern face of Mt. Everest – the Khangshung face, via Karma Valley which has views of such giants as Mt. Makalu (8475m), Mt. Karma Changri (6289m), Mt. Everest, Pethangtse, Lhotse and others.
The trek passes through several tiny valleys which are dotted with beautiful lakes. This region is famous for its pristine wilderness and excellent views of the mountains along with the enormous Khangsung glacier.
Kharta valley trek is definitely a hard trek and requires good stamina but it will be rewarded with fantastic Himalayan sceneries with spectacular walk which takes you along steep-sided valleys and glacial lakes. Summer time is considered good time to trek this plateau is ablaze with a thick carper of yellow wild flowers. All around are huge snowy white ice floes pouring from the peaks into the Khangshung Glacier.
