Today’s seven and a half hour trek takes you to the highest point of the route at Bonte La Pass at a height 4,890 metres (16,043 feet) above sea level, and a great spot for a picnic lunch with views of Kanchenjunga, at 8,586 metres (28,169 feet) the world’s third highest peak among many other mountain views. Descending from the pass, you’ll enter the steep sided Soi Yaksa valley and your camp at Dhumzo at an altitude of 3,800 metres (12,467 feet).
