This trek will take us from desert to meadows filled with wildflowers to green
plantations. The cultural diversity from one area to another is fascinating.
There will also be plenty of wildlife to view. We will have a number of days to
sightsee in Lhasa. There we will visit the Potala Palace, former home of His
Holiness the Dalai Lama along with many other places of interest. With our gear
loaded on Tibetan Yaks, we will trek as far as Everest North Base Camp, to see
the highest place on earth from the Tibetan side.
