Trip Highlights
Makalu Base Camp and Barun Valley Trekking are regarded as one of the less exposed wilderness trekking trails in Nepal. Firstly, this classical trekking takes us to the 5th world's highest mountain, Mt. Makalu which is closer to the top of the world, Mt. Everest. Secondly, this trekking also offers an opportunity to step into a mesmerizing Barun Valley which is popular for exhilarating wilderness and solitude. Makalu Base Camp and the Barun Valley trekking trail are protected by Makalu Barun National Park. The exotic species of flora and fauna are another considerable attraction of this trekking. This trail is a less crowded and less exposed area trekking in Nepal. Makalu Base Camp – Barun Valley Trekking commences from Tumlingtar after we have a short and scenic flight from Kathmandu. The trail then follows along the legendary Barun River to Makalu Base Camp. Before getting to Makalu Base Camp, we will experience some high passes and some serene lakes in the lap of the Himalayas. These high passes will be a thrilling experience for adventure enthusiasts.
Makalu Base Camp Trek is a popular vantage point that offers us breathtaking views of the Himalayas including Mt. Everest, Mt. Lhotse, Mt. Chamlang, Mt. Baruntse, and other trekking peaks. This trekking is also popular for peak trekking like Mera Peak.
Makalu Barun National Park owns Barun Valley, This valley and Makalu Barun region are an abode to many species of vegetation and wildlife including rhododendrons, orchids, Snow Leopard, Red Panda, Musk Deer, Wild Boar, Wild Yak, Himalayan Thar, and many more. Moreover, this area is home to more than 420 varieties of bird species. Most significantly, we happen to see the spiny babbler, the bird only found in Nepal. So, even bird watchers find this trekking trail rewarding.
