Article Walk around Thame

Thame is a picturesque village with a very nice view of the mountain ridge, which exceeds it by almost three kilometers. In nice weather (not typical here), it is an ideal place for admiring directly from the lodge.

During the walk through the valley of Thame Khosi you will be always attracted by the ice wall of mountains on its southern side.

If you set out for a trip to the valley, do not get fooled by the trails leading along the river – they gradually disappear after a few hundred meters in the bush vegetation and the way then gets significantly slower or even impossible. The only right way is the one that leads up to the monastery and then away along the contour line below Sunder peak.

The monastery above Thame (3,970 m asl) is picturesquely situated in a rocky slope – almost as an eagle's nest. If you are planning climb to the Sunder peak – the ascent path starts right at the monastery.

From the path leading on into the depths of the valley is clearly visible that Thame and the surrounding fields are at the very end of the moraine. It is almost unbelievable that there was once a glacier.
