20 days Jaljale Himal Lumba Sumba:

Dear all trekkers,
Namaste! Welcome, for really adventure camping trek at Jal jala Himal region.

This is one of the most beautiful, remote and un known trekking region at east Nepal, between Makalu (alt. 8,485m.) and Kanchanjunga (alt. 8,586m.) region. From JalJale himal range you can see beautiful Arun and Tamur river valley.

This is completely remote area between Gufa Pokhari to Olangchung Gola there are not any human settlement. Only in the summer season you can see yaks, Sheep and cows for short time. Such a beautiful region you can't see any tourist.

For the different views trek will start from Gufa pokhari after the motor road, Milkea danda all over the Jal jala ridge cross Lumba Subma pass descends to Olangchung village. 

After Olangchung Gola there is two options for this trek. Follow Yangma khola to Langjong kharka cross Nango La descends to Phale village, trek continue to Kanchanjunga base camp or trek to Lelap village drive by jeep to Taplejung Bazar. Near future motor road between Olangchung Gola to Taplejung will be complete, which make easier trekking at this region.

This trekking region open only for short period, because winter heavy snow falls difficult to get the trekking route, summer raining even is spring difficult for water at Jal Jala ridge. Without a experience guide or local people, it is not possible trekking at this region.

To carry the luggage and ration we will take mules or yaks porters if possible, if not we will take human porters. At the high elevation the porters need warm clothing and enough foods and drinks, without porters we can't move our trek. Most of the porters, they don't have warm clothing and shoes. We will fulfil all the necessary clothing for the porters to keep them happy and healthy. 

High altitude sickness and solution: High-altitude sickness occurs when your body can’t get enough oxygen because the lower air pressure at higher elevation above 3,000m. when you ascend too quickly during the trek. At High elevation anyone at any time can be suffering from high-altitude sickness which is common, you don’t have to be nervous but please be attention. 

If you feel symptoms of high – altitude (Headache, vomiting, loss your appetite, Dizziness and trouble falling asleep) stop to ascending immediately descend as soon as possible. Eat enough garlic soup, take lots of hot drinks and rest. Next day you will feel better, if not your guide will look for another solution. If you are really serious, we will arrange a rescue helicopter flight from Kathmandu or Lukla, within a couple of hours to save 100% your life. 

Communication: If some one seriously sick or injured, you have to call at Kathmandu for rescue helicopter. At Jaljale Himal - Lumba Sumba regions, mobile network service is not available for calling. We will send satellite phone set with enough balance, extra battery and solar charger for emergency call and service.
