Tashi Labtsa Trek

"We cannot lower the mountain, therefore we must elevate ourselves" - Todd Skinner

 About Trip 

The Tashi Labsta Pass Trek is one of Nepal’s most remote and challenging high-altitude adventures, designed for seasoned trekkers looking to step far off the beaten path. This unforgettable journey takes you from the secluded Rolwaling Valley to the legendary Khumbu region, offering a wild mix of deep forests, glacial lakes, Himalayan peaks, and technical alpine terrain. It’s not an easy route—but for those who are ready, it’s one of the most rewarding treks in the Himalayas.

Starting with a scenic drive from Kathmandu to Jagat, the trail follows the Tama Khosi River into lush hills and remote Sherpa villages like Simigaun, offering first views of Mount Gaurishankar (7,134m). As you ascend through the rhododendron and pine forests, the terrain becomes more rugged, leading to peaceful settlements like Dongang, Beding, and Na Gaon—villages deeply rooted in Buddhist culture and traditional mountain life.

The trek gradually enters glacial terrain, with jaw-dropping views of peaks like Ramdung Go, Yalung Ri, and Chukyima Go surrounding you. After acclimatizing in Na Gaon, you continue toward the sparkling Tsho Rolpa Lake, one of Nepal’s largest glacial lakes—a quiet, turquoise mirror reflecting the snow-covered giants above.

As you move onto the Drolambu Glacier, the real adventure begins. Camping in the heart of icy wilderness, far from civilization, you prepare for the most demanding day: the Tashi Labsta Pass (5,755m) crossing. With the support of experienced Sherpas, ropes, and gear like crampons and ice axes, you make your way up the pass—steep, raw, and breathtaking. At the summit, prayer flags flutter in the wind as you gaze into the horizon of the Khumbu region, a reward that makes every step worth it.

Descending through Thyangbo Kharka and Thame, you rejoin the more familiar Everest trail network, with the world gradually returning—lodges, trekkers, and the hum of mountain life. The trek wraps up at Namche Bazaar and Lukla, where comfort meets culture, and you reflect on a journey few have dared to take.

In conclusion, the Tashi Labsta Pass Trek is for true explorers—those who want to go beyond Everest Base Camp and discover one of the most untouched corners of the Himalayas. With its blend of glacier crossings, high mountain passes, Sherpa villages, and remote wilderness, this trek offers a raw, powerful, and unforgettable experience in the heart of Nepal.
