Kanchenjunga
is third biggest peak of the world. The Kanchenjunga
is situated in the eastern frontier between Nepal
and India. It is 8586mt. high. This region was opened
for trekking tourism only in 1988. The trekking in this
area is relatively strenuous since the region is regarded
as the most remote place of Nepal. However the presence
of numerous wild animals, bird and flora in abundance
make the trekking in this area very interesting and pleasantry
enclose a number of glacier peaks. The Sherpas inhabit
the northern part of the Kanchenjunga
region whereas the southern lower part is full of the
ethnic groups such as Rai, Limbus, Magars, Tamangs, Brahmans
and Chhetris. The settlements of these ethnic groups are
not so dense; they are rather scattered. They are also
different in tradition and their ways of life.
