Milke Danda trekking is one of the long and high forest ridge which separates the Arun and Tamur Valley in the eastern Nepal. We can begin our trek from Basantapur or Tumlingtar and make a trek about 7-14 days up to this ridge. This provides the massif views of Makalu (8,463) to the West and Kanchenjunga (8,586m) is the world’s third highest peak that lies at the Eastern part of Nepal. The Mike Danda ridge ends in some high peaks so we have to retrace our trail back down to Chainpur and trek will end at Tumlingtar or Basantapur thought the huge forests of rhododendrons along the ridge.
Mike Danda Trek is the popular destination we could observe the various kind of flowers including the Nepal’s National flower rhododendrons. It offers us best chance to explore local inhabitants, their lifestyle, culture, great Himalayan scenic including Mt. Everest, Makalu, Kanchenjunga, blooming of different flowers including rhododendron.
