After several unsuccessful attempts, the Mt. Namcha Barwa (7756 m.) was eventually climbed in 30th October 1992 by a joint Chinese-Japanese team. It is situated in the lush forested valleys of South-Eastern Tibet. The bulk of its massif causes the East flowing Tsangpo River , the highest flowing river in the world, to make a huge loop around the mountain to flow southward into India where it becomes the mighty westward flowing Brahmaputra .

Beginning in Lhasa and taking in a preliminary route through Samye and Tsedang, we follow the course of the Tsangpo close to the disputed Indian border area to arrive at the village of Lusha near the big bend in the river. Passing through villages of the Loba people(a Tibetan minority group), we make our ways through the forested region of Pei to the Namcha Barwa Base Camp. The relatively low altitude of the base camp area(1600m.) affords astounding views of the vertical snow capped peak of Namcha Barwa (7756m.). After a circumambulation of the holy mountain of Atsom Neh , we continue to the Gyala monastery before making our return to Lhasa via Gongbu Jiangda and Ganden.

This route offers more than the usual share of daily excitement and promises a captivating experience in what must be one of Tibet 's most interesting and remotely beautiful areas.
