Stay : Mount Dorje Lakpa expedition
Dorje Lakpa lies at an altitude of 6988 m, east of the Langtang valley and south of Shishapangma (Tibet). Dorje Lakpa is one of the Langtang region's difficult but popular destinations, which was off-limits to mountaineers until 1981. Mount Dorje is visible from Kathmandu and also from Nagarkot on clear days, and is renowned for its elegant pyramid shape. The trail passes through Nepalese villages, rhododendron forests, pine trees, bamboo and other flora.
The first successful ascent was made by a Japanese expedition in the late 1960s across the West Ridge. Also in 1992, Carlos Buhler climbed Dorje Lakpa solo. Known for its high avalanche risk, this mountain has a hard time attracting the attention of climbers. The route to Dorje Lakpa begins at Kyanjin Gompa, in the direction of Dorje Lakpa base camp. C
