상세 내역
Shey Phoksundo National Park covers 3,555 sq km in the Dolpo region of western Nepal, holding the deepest alpine lake in Nepal at Phoksundo, traditional Bon Po and Tibetan Buddhist villages, and snow leopard habitat. The trekking route starts at Juphal at 2,400 m, reached by flight from Nepalgunj, and climbs through Dunai at 2,140 m to Ringmo at 3,640 m on the lake shore. The standard 10 day package starts with a flight from Nepalgunj to Juphal, then climbs to Dunai on day 2, Chhepka at 2,830 m on day 3, reaches Ringmo and Phoksundo Lake at 3,612 m on day 5, includes a rest day at the lake for the Bon Po monastery at Pugmo, and returns via the same route. The route uses teahouse lodging at Dunai and Chhepka and tented camping at Ringmo and Phoksundo.

답에 영향을 미치는 것
Three factors shape the package inclusions. First, season: the Nepalgunj to Juphal flight operates only from March to November, with summer monsoon flights delayed by 1 to 3 days. The lake is best in May and October for clear turquoise water, while spring rhododendron blooms in March and April on the Dunai approach. Second, group size: a 4 person group runs at the standard $1,450 average, while a 2 person group runs 30 percent higher per head due to fixed camping crew costs. Third, route extension: the 12 day package with the Phoksundo ridge at 4,350 m adds $200 per person for an extra acclimatization day and camp gear, but delivers the iconic upper lake panorama.
예약 팁
Shortlist 4 operators who ran Shey Phoksundo trips in 2025 or 2026. Ask each for the named Dolpo culture guide, the Nepalgunj to Juphal flight rebooking policy, the Ringmo tented camp booking protocol, and the crew insurance certificate. Pay 30 percent deposit by credit card, 50 percent on arrival in Nepalgunj, and 20 percent at Juphal trailhead. Avoid operators who quote under $1,100 per person for the 10 day package.
대안과의 비교
Compared with the Upper Dolpo Trek at 18 to 24 days and $2,800 to $3,800 per person, the Shey Phoksundo route runs shorter and avoids the $500 Upper Dolpo restricted area permit. Shey Phoksundo suits trekkers wanting the lake and Bon Po culture without the longer commitment. Compared with the Lower Dolpo Trek at 14 to 18 days and $1,800 to $2,400 per person, the Shey Phoksundo route runs shorter and avoids the Do Tarap crossing.
피해야 할 일반적인 실수
Do not book a Shey Phoksundo package under 8 days. The 3,612 m lake altitude on day 5 after starting at 2,400 m on day 1 triggers altitude risk in 1 of 8 trekkers on rushed routes. Avoid operators who skip the Shey Phoksundo National Park Permit from the quote. The permit is checked at the Dunai park checkpoint on day 2, and trekkers without it are fined $60 and sent back to Juphal. Skip any plan that uses teahouse lodging at Ringmo, since the village has only tented camp infrastructure.
