Korala
Nepal
Pass between Tibet and Nepal. It rises in the Nepal Himalaya, approached on foot in the post-monsoon and pre-monsoon trekking seasons.
Why visit: High crossings like Thorong La — the hard-won, prayer-flag-strung high points of Nepal's classic treks.
- ›Cross early before the wind picks up
- ›Photograph the prayer flags at the top
- ›Take the long view down both valleys
