Survival passage in the Himalayas

In Drolampau, the cable connects two valleys at 5,400 metres.

The Nepal entry concerns a cable passage within a Himalayan crossing, not a stand-alone visitor attraction. Use the profile to understand where the installation fits into the journey between Rolwaling and the Everest region. A short equipped section does not describe the time, altitude or skills required by the complete crossing. Before planning a trip around it, ask a qualified local operator about the itinerary, current access and conditions. This page covers the experience selected for our Top 100; it does not claim to catalogue all via ferratas in Nepal. Compare its setting with the other summit entries, while checking the practical requirements of each route separately.
