Kanchenjunga is the world’s third-highest mountain at a height of 8586m, located in the Eastern part of Nepal. Four glaciers radiate from the peak, pointing roughly to the north-east, south-east, north-west and south-west. It is surrounded by the Kanchenjunga Conservation Area that keeps the wilderness and natural beauty of the region protected and untouched. This region is the habitat for rare species such as the majestic Snow Leopard, the reclusive Himalayan Black Bear, the Blue Sheep, the Musk Deer and the Assamese Macaque to name a few. Some of the richest rhododendron forests are found here, where there are over 2000 species of flowering plants recorded and many new species still being discovered.
Local habitations are few and scattered, but the locals that you meet will give you a fascinating insight into the existing cultural diversity in Nepal. They are friendly, hospitable people and are always willing to help trekkers that pass their way.
