This new trek winds through the hills of Solu from Phaplu via pangoma to the glacial lake at Dudh Kunda ( 4500m), which shivers beneath the mountain wall of Numbur (6959m)
From Pangoma it takes seven to nine hours to reach the the Camp site by the lake, and a further three to five days to trek through Thupten Chholing to junbesi. Do not
attempt to reach the lake in a single day if you have not acclimatised above 4000m,( For example, if you are descending from the Everest region). The turn-off in Pangoma is
Just uphill from the Quiet View Lodge - if you reach the Gauri Shanker Lodge you've gone too far.
The 1;125,000 Jiri-Pikey-Everest map from Nepa Maps shows the two-week loop from Phaplu airstrip to Dudh kunda and on to the the Everest viewpoint at Pikey danda
(4065m) passing through mountainous country that has so far seen few international trekkers. For suggested itineraries, follow the links to specific treks in the Everest region
