The Best Lhasa Countryside Hiking Experience from Shalu to Nartang

In additional to traditional way of touring Tibet only by using tour vehicle, trekking, just like cycling, also enjoys great popularity by many overseas tourists. Physically challenging indeed, in fact, no better way than trekking can you better experience unique topography and vegetation, etc. on Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.

Trekking in Tibet features many themes, such as pilgrimage trek, Tibetan cultural trek and sightseeing trek. You can find the one that suits you most. In this tour view, our our 48th Group of April chose to trek from Shalu Monastery to Nartang Monastery, in which they get a chance to follow the ancient trade route between the two great Buddhist monasteries.

In addition to visiting historical Lhasa city, tourists can use this two-three days' trek  to experience trekking on Qinghai-Tibet plateau . While you trek through the route, you can see many Tibetan nomads and thier livestock and feel the caravans laden with scriptures and treasures that once passed this way.
