I chose Chhukung Ri specifically because I wanted a high vantage point without needing technical mountaineering skills, and it delivered exactly that. The trail is demanding — narrow, rocky, and exposed to strong wind near the top — but manageable with good preparation and a steady pace. Reaching the summit and seeing Everest, Lhotse, and Makalu aligned along the horizon was a deeply moving experience.
The quiet of Chhukung village itself, away from the busier Base Camp trail, added to the sense that we had found something special. I would tell any fellow trekker from Japan considering the Everest region: build in the extra day for Chhukung Ri, because the memory of that sunrise summit is one you will not forget.
In the field of tourism, experience speaks for itself and Mr. Sujan Kapri has a lot of those. He has over two years of experience as a porter guide and 4 years as a mountain guide. He has always sought something more than just plain travel and finds great fun in adventures. While today he might be a veteran, Mr. Kapri started at the village of Sahid Lakhan in Gorkha. He explored the serene forests in the foothills of the Ganesh, Shringi, and Mansiri ranges.
Since his early childhood, Kapri has taken on numerous endeavors across Nepal to explore the country and recognize the challenges that lie ahead. Having seen and experienced the beauty himself, Mr. Kapri seeks to implement and organize innovative trips and services. As a Tour Operator, Kapri is responsible for rather lucrative trips and offers across Nepal. At High Route Adventure, Kapri makes sure that the beauty of Nepal is appreciated by all kinds of travelers.
