Trekking in the Majesty of the Tibetan Plateau 2013

Genyen Mountains  Lenggo Monestary, China

Trekking in the Majesty of the Tibetan Plateau will take you to the heart of the Tibetan Plateau to experience the wild scenic beauty and teachings of the Himalayan Mountains and the vibrant culture of the local people who live there. This is an active, cultural journey, which will immerse you in the local flora, and majesty of the wilderness terrains as well as the cultural and culinary flavors. We will start off our trek in Chengdu, the capital of the Sichuan province, and gradually head west passing Kangding and arrive at Litang, at the foot of the Genyen Massif. From there, we will put on our packs and trek into the grand Himalaya, setting up a small base camp in front of the 800-year-old Lenggu Monastery. There we will enjoy several days of exploring the valley, and hiking amongst the meditation caves that look out on the breathtaking granite spires nearby. After the trek, we’ll head towards Daocheng/Yading area to visit and awe three sacred snowy peaks which are believed to be three Guanyin’s (goddesses) and dance with the locals in Tibetan dance music.
