We cross the ridges and stream beds that make up the valley sides and the trail eventually becomes level with the river a couple of hours before Yamphudin. Along the way, we can stop to bath in one of the many clear pools in this beautiful river. It is a truly idyllic spot and after lunch by the river, we complete the day’s walk to Yamphudin. Yamphudin is the most remote settlement in this area and the last habitation we will see until we reach Gunsa. Needless to say, it is a charming place tucked away beneath the ridge of the DeoraliDanda, which we must cross next. Overnight stay in Yamphudin.

Day 08: Trek to Lamite Jungle Camp (2,920m)
Beyond Yamphudin, the trail ascends a steep spur before dropping again to cross the OmjeKhola.

Along this ridge lies the three main summits of Mt Kanchenjunga at 8,420m, 8,586m and 8,474m. These three summits, jutting out into the sky presents a really grand sight.
