13 Days

Numbur cheese circuit trek is a new trek in Nepal. Numbur cheese circuit trek is a completely non-spoiled trekking trail of Nepal, camping near by the village and walking through local villages of Sherpa and other communities is a beautiful experience.

Numbur cheese circuit trek 1 — The Numbur Cheese Circuit Trek is a relatively lesser-known trekking route in the Everest region of Nepal.

This trekking trail leads through Panch-pokhari and Jattapokhari, which is more than just beautiful. Jata Pokhari & Panchpokhai is of religious belief among Hindu and Buddhist, and once in a year fest takes place in this holy lake.

Apart from 2 major lakes famous as pilgrimage site; Numbur cheese circuit trek will give opportunity to explore other lakes en route. This off the beaten circuit trail is also famous for its 5 lakes. However, the trekking trail with 5 lakes is named as Jata Pokhari circuit trek.

The 5 lakes of the trail are Bhale Pokhari, Jor Pokhari, Baulaha Pokhari, Jattapokhari and Panch pokhari. Indeed, there are other small lakes which can be seen along the Jata Pokhari circuit route.

Major attraction of this new circuit trekking route is the closeness to Mt Numbur chuli. Whereas Mt Sishapangma can be seen in distance. Sisa Pangma is one of the 8k mountains located in Tibet.

Local villages, Yaks herd along the trekking route, peaceful location, pilgrimage site and view of the mountains seen as close as you might be able to touch – are major attractions for trekking in Numbur cheese circuit.

Numbur cheese circuit trek 2 — Jatta Pokhari is a beautiful alpine lake located in the Solukhumbu district of Nepal, which is also in the Everest region.

How is the accomodation in Numbur cheese circuit trek?

Relying on the fact that NCC is off the beaten trekking route – there are no proper tea houses all along the trekking route. Trekking in Numbur cheese circuit is camping plus tea house trekking. In the beginning of the trek and towards the end of the trek there are tea houses where you can spend nights in the local lodge or homestays.

As a camping trek – luxury trek in this route will cost you extra and this extra cost depends on how comfortably you want to trek. But nothing is impossible. Enough trekking staff and good trekking gears with perfect management – wilderness of NCC trekking route can be accommodated as per your need and budget frame.

In contrast with camping plus tea house trek accomodation – remoteness of the trekking route is overwhelming.
