TREKKING TO KHATA
Entering Tibet, you’ll feel as though you’ve entered an entirely different world. Tibet is the highest plateau in the world with an average altitude more than 3500 meters. Lying to the north of the great Himalayan mountain range that separates it from its neighbors, Tibet is an untamed land of nomads (drokpas), monasteries, yaks, sand dunes, and high-altitude deserts that go as far as the eyes can reach.
