Sandakphu in June

scott s · Mar 25th, 2008, 02:34

As a teacher in the United States, my trekking is limited to Summer Months. How likely would I be to enjoy the amazing views of Everest, Lhotse, Makalu, Kanchenjanga from Sandakphu in early June? I would be wiling to get up early if sunrise would offer better viewing?

Thanks!

You may take up the trip to Sndakphu in June,but be sure,in all probabitly,at that time of the year,you are likely to encounter a cloudy day and your willingness to get a clear view of the famous peaks together for which you are comming down from so far might be hampered

; I took a trip last year in May,and only got a view of Mount Kanchenjunga for a few seconds during the whole week

; The best time to go for a trek to Sandakphu would be from December to April,as far as I know. Any other views are welcome.
