Also, a Himalayan ride from the green to the glacier is a spectacular climb in Nepal, walking along the Rhododendron forest, paddy fields, higher meadows and different species of birds etc. will make your journey one of the unforgettable journey of your life. The base camp will be set up at (5,400m) and a minimum of two camps will be prepared before final push for the summit. The mountain is a bundle of snow and rock so extra attention will be needed in walking through rock and snow.
