  • The Rolwaling Himal range is located in the central east of Nepal, along the Tibetan border, between the Langtang Himal range and the Mahalangur Himal range.Rolwaling Himal includes Melungtse 7181 m, Melungtse II 7023 m, Gaurishankar 7134 m, Pachermo Himal (6275 m), Chobutse (6685  m), and some 50 other peaks over 6000 m, all extending from the Nangpa La pass, where the Mahalangur section begins, southwest to the Tamakoshi River.

    Rolwaling means "valley carved by a plow," and its steep cliffs do indeed give the impression of a plow-carved furrow. The alpine lakes, high pastures, waterfalls, hanging glaciers, deep valleys, and views of the snow-capped mountains make this trek a treat for every trekker. This off-the-beaten-track adventure in Rolwaling, an inner Himalayan valley, is considered Beyal, a holy sanctuary, by the local Buddhist Sherpa inhabitants.

    In the Sherpa language, "Tsho" means lake and "Rolpa" is a rolwaling valley. Tsho Rolpa Lake had been on high alert since early 2000 due to the possibility of a glacier lake outburst flood (GLOF) due to global warming. Rolwaling Valley Trek, popularly known as the Tsho Rolpa Trek in the Gaurishankar Conservation Area, is filled with villages, farming fields, forests, rivers, waterfalls, greenery, mountains, and everything in between. This off-beaten trail looks very natural and offers trekkers the opportunity to explore nature and themselves.
