It takes three days' camping and hiking from the Ganden Monastery in Lhasa, capital city of Tibet, to the Samye Monastery of Lhoka in the southern part of Tibet.

It requires both good physical and psychological conditions as the hikers have to depart at a 4,000-meter ridge and then climb over two mountains with an elevation above 5,000 meters.

Hard as it is, the journey is worth it since the landscapes all along the way are magnificent enough to take your breath away.

Besides, the weather there is quite changeable. The hikers may experience four seasons in a single day, so we suggest the hikers bring enough but proper clothes.
