- Drohmo Ri is an easy trekking peak with breathtaking views of the daunting north face of Kangchenjunga in the far east of Nepal.
The north face (or more accurately its ridge) was first climbed by Doug Scott, Pete Boardman and Joe Tasker in 1979. Drohmo Ri has been climbed more frequently by people not as talented, including myself. It's an easy 3 to 4 hour walk above the teahouse at Pangpema, at the end of the Kangchenjunga Base Camp trail.
We weren't sure if Drohmo Ri would pass the magic 6,000m in height, but if it did it was going to be one of the easiest 6,000ers in the world, a hike up a hillside with a spot of boulder hopping at the end. It was with a measure of anticipation that we got out our GPS devices on the summit to measure.

Amazing vedio ❤
Thank you sir for visit in kanchenjunga🙏
Great video!
Which month and what were the dates in which you did this trek. ?
Fantastic thank you
Thank you for this amazing video! I bet it was a journey. I might do this trekking next time in Nepal. What season did you trek?
At 2.40 , The Mighty Kanchenjunga main 8586 is looking not very tall from where you were standing & describing with your stick pointing towards the Mt. It could be do camera . But how big is Kanchenjunga visually from your eyes in reality from that point at 2.40 ?? Thanks
And at 3.50 it is not looking so tall . Like a small 900 foot tall hill. Is it due to camera. Was that main 8586 further than you at 3.50 ? Kindly please reply coz iam curious . Thanks for this lovely vdo👍❤
Mountain Height is measured from sea level not from where you stands.
Very nice vdo. Could you tell me what is the actual height of Kanchenjunga main from its base till the summit. It is definitely not 8586 mts . Thanks
Its 9000 m
@@pratikpandey7296From where you are getting 9000 mts Sir. How come ?? It's base camp starts at 5200 mts . From which the Mt rises. Hence to get the actual height of The Majestic Kanchenjunga you have deduct 8586 - 5200 = 3486 mts only . Thanks 👍
