The Kanchenjunga Circuit Trek was breathtaking, which let us through remote villages, dense rhododendron forests, and crossing high mountain passes. Hidden Trek Nepal ensured everything was smooth; from our porters to our guide, who was pretty knowledgeable about the places we were curious about. We extended two extra days in their ideal 18-day trip to relax and enjoy more. Highly recommend this trek to the third-highest mountain for seasoned hikers looking for solitude and raw beauty.
