Dolpo
is located inside the Shy - Phoksundo
National Park of mid-western Nepal, behind
the Dhaulagiri massif, towards the Tibetan
Plateau. Cut off by a series of very high
passes, closed by snow most of the year,
Dolpo remains a truly isolated corner of
Nepal. Time has stood still here for
centuries as the inhabitants of Tibetan
stock continue to live, cultivate and
trade the way they have done since time
immemorial. The finally preserved
Eco-system encompasses a wild and
wonderful variety of plants and wildlife,
including the blue sheep and leopard. A
trek through Dolpo is an experience not
easily forgotten.
