A mountain pass at 5400 metres high and the finishing point of the trek 'around the Annapurnas'.
My suggestion
Besides warm clothes you won't need any high altitude equipment. No cleats or ice axes: despite the altitude you won't come across any walls of ice!

The Thorang La pass is the highest pass in the world, with an altitude of 5416 metres.
My suggestion
My word of caution: respect every word of the acclimatisation rules for the altitude and don't skip the stop-overs. The dangers which you expose yourself to otherwise are real and potentially dramatic.
A spiritual getaway, far from the hustle and bustle of Thamel.
Situated just 5 kilometres from the city, Boudhanath is one of the most revered Buddhist shrines in Nepal.
