Ganden
Samye trekking is one of the most famous and adventurous trekking in Tibet.
This trek begins from a Ganden Valley visiting a famous Ganden Monastery
which is situated about 45 Kms east of Lhasa on the highway which follows
the south bank of Kyi Chu to Medro Gongkar. This is an excellent basic trek
which combines important historical sites with a beautiful hike through
high-altitude nomadic areas.Our trek involves a steady climb over a pass to
the high altitude (above 5000m) pastures only used by nomads in the summer
months. We continue in these highlands through gentle hills and past remote
lakes before crossing another pass and dropping into the sheltered valley of
Yamalung. Finally we turn into the wide Tsangpo (Brahmaputra) valley and its
rolling sand dunes. Finally we will reach to a Samye valley where our
trekking ends. Samye valley is famous for a samye monastery one of the
oldest monastery in tibet. After spending a day at Samye valley we will
drive toward the Gongar Airport for our final departure.
