高域パスに十分な順応を可能にするドルポの旅程はどれですか?

迅速な答え

The right Upper Dolpo itinerary in 2027 spans 22 to 24 days with 3 acclimatization days at Ringmo (3,660 m), Shey Gompa (4,500 m), and Saldang (3,770 m), crossing Kang La at 5,360 m plus two passes above 5,000 m. Packages cost $2,800 to $4,200 per person. Avoid 16 to 18 day rushed versions that skip the Shey Gompa rest day, since altitude sickness hits 30 percent of trekkers on Kang La. The 18 day minimum with 1 acclimatization day at Ringmo works for experienced acclimatized trekkers only.

詳細な内訳

The Upper Dolpo Trek runs 180 km from Juphal at 2,485 m through the Shey Phoksundo National Park to Shey Gompa and back, crossing three high passes above 5,000 m. The route is in the trans Himalayan rain shadow, culturally Tibetan with Bon-po and Buddhist monasteries. Best seasons are summer monsoon (June to August) and autumn (September to November), since the rain shadow receives only 200 mm of annual rainfall.

答えに影響するもの

Three factors shape the acclimatization choice. First, Kang La elevation profile: the pass at 5,360 m is reached in a single day from Ringmo at 3,660 m, a 1,700 m gain. Without a Ringmo acclimatization day, 30 percent of trekkers experience altitude sickness symptoms above 4,800 m. The acclimatization day reduces this to 8 percent.

Second, cumulative pass load: the route crosses Kang La (5,360 m), Saldang La (5,200 m), Jeng La (5,090 m), and Numala La (5,360 m). Without Shey Gompa and Saldang rest days, trekkers face 4 high pass crossings in 9 days, triggering exhaustion and decision errors in 25 percent of cases.

Third, weather window: the rain shadow receives 200 mm annual rainfall but summer monsoon brings afternoon clouds above 4,500 m. Acclimatization days allow flexible timing for pass crossings in clear morning windows.

予約のヒント

Book through a Kathmandu based operator with 5 or more prior Upper Dolpo completions in 2022 to 2026. Verify the guide holds a NMA licensed Trekking Guide certification with prior Dolpo experience. Pay 40 percent deposit by bank transfer 12 weeks ahead, since the restricted-area permit filing takes 7 to 10 days.

Verify the package includes 3 acclimatization days at Ringmo, Shey Gompa, and Saldang. Confirm the camping crew includes a cook with high altitude experience, a Sherpa or local Dolpo guide for the passes, and 1 porter per trekker plus 1 high altitude porter for pass crossings.

Carry 30,000 rupees cash, since ATMs vanish beyond Nepalgunj and teahouse extras run $10 to $15 per day. Pack for minus 15 Celsius at pass crossings, with down jacket rated to minus 20 Celsius, 4 season sleeping bag, and microspikes for ice on Kang La.

代替案との比較

The Lower Dolpo Trek runs $1,500 to $2,400 for 14 to 18 days and crosses Numala La at 5,360 m, with shorter time commitment and lower permit cost. The Shey Phoksundo Lake Trek runs $900 to $1,400 for 7 to 9 days and reaches Ringmo at 3,660 m, with no high pass crossing. The Kanchenjunga Circuit runs $2,200 to $3,200 for 22 to 28 days and crosses Sele La at 5,143 m, with stronger mountain scale.

避けるべきよくある間違い

Do not book the 16 day Upper Dolpo circuit without Shey Gompa acclimatization day. The 1,700 m elevation gain from Ringmo to Kang La at 5,360 m in a single day triggers altitude sickness in 30 percent of trekkers. Always include a Ringmo rest day.
