Dolpo, Kagmara Pass Trekking is an outstanding trek in the isolated area of west part of Nepal at Dolpo Region where trek can also be done even in the mid monsoon as it lies in the rain shadow area formed by the Dhaulagiri & Annapurna ranges. Trekking in the Dolpo region has its own charm, people here still lead a primitive life, yet they are friendly. This is also one of few areas where pre-Buddhist Bon Po religion is still practiced and its culture.
