Hidden deep within the Himalaya is Humla the highest, most northern and remote district of Nepal. Humla is culturally diverse, occupied in the northern highlands by Bhotias, and in the southern valleys and riverbeds by the Khasas Hindus. You will experience these rich and varied cultures as you trek over 5000m. passes, through remote villages, and explore ancient monasteries in the vivid Limi Valley. Limi Valley is like stepping back in time. Due to the isolated location, the villages are very untouched by modern development. Century-old Buddhist traditions interwoven with shamanistic influences are still an important part of daily life here. You follow the ancient salt trading and pilgrimage route to the border of Nepal and Tibet and China, crossing the Nara La pass 4620m. with spectacular views of the Himalayas. From the border town of Hilsa, you turn northeast towards the Limi Valley. During this trek, you have a chance to spot the elusive snow leopard, Himalayan blue sheep, jackals, hyenas and musk deer. You sleep in authentic, small Buddhist villages and camping in amazing spots..
