Although the path goes and returns by the same way, this trekking remains a wonderland for the botanists amateurs or professionals. This valley has really a very rich and interesting endemic flora. The blue poppy is not rare there. It has other beautiful characteristics that make this trek as very singular. The villages, especially located in the first part of the trekking shelter various ethnic groups: Hindo-Nepalese, Rai, Limbu, Sherpa, Bhotia developing each one, in a great proximity, their own culture. Higher, the villages are rarer to become only "karka", stoned houses in the pastures only occupied during the good season. The view toward Makalu and Chamlang is more impressive. From Barun Pokhari, moraine lake botton the Baruntse and expeditions starting point, the Makalu South face of is drawn up like a challenge. A forgotten trekking that has preserved all its character. It sould be discovered, always in good Company...
