About
Mount Saipal is the second highest peak in Far West Nepal. It stands at an impressive 7031 meters.
Whether you view it from the east or the north, it is a beautiful peak. Both the East and North Saipal Base camp are accessible from Simikot. The East Base camp heads south from Simikot and makes a deviation through the steep-sided forested countryside.
This region is culturally and geographically isolated from the rest of the nation. This region's broad and rolling passes (lekhs) are thickly forested with enormous Deodars (Cedar-like trees), spruces and ancient blue pines. The Chhetris and Brahmins populate the villages nestling among them, and the other ethnic groups are the Thakurs and Bhotias. There is a particular cultural and economic interaction between Hindus and Buddhists unmatched elsewhere in the Himalayas.
