Trekking
in Tibet |
A country as vast and mountainous as
Tibet offers almost unlimited potential for walkers.
From the frigid high norhtern plains to the steamy
jungles of south-east, Tibet is a land of rich cultural
and ecological contrasts. The remoteness of Tibet
combined with these climatic extremes poses special
challenges for trekkers, as well as unique rewards.
There are few places left in the world where you can
walk for days, witnessing an ancient and sophisticated
culture, without having the experience marred by the
dross of modern civilisation. - lonely planet guidebook
