    Dolpa Trekking


    Dolpa District a part of Karnali province is one of the seventy-seven districts of Nepal. The district borders Tibet (China) on the north and northeast, Jumla and Mugu districts of Karnali on the west, Myagdi, Jajarkot and Rukum on the south, and Mustang on the east. A large segment of the district is ensured by Shey Phoksundo National Park. The name is derived from the twelfth century Shey Monastery and the most profound lake in Nepal, the Phoksundo Lake, both of which lie in the area. The Shey phoksundo National park secures endangered animals like the snow leopard, musk deer, and the Tibetan wolf. Shey Phoksundo is the biggest and the sole trans-Himalayan National Park in Nepal.
