We then will climb to the Limbu village of Kunjari  at 1700 meter and continue through wheat fields to a Gurung settlement  on a 2240 meter high pass. From here we have our first views of  Kanchenjunga.

       This day will bring us a lot of jumping from stone to stone, as we first  have to cross the Tenguwa Khola stream.  We climb steeply up to a ridge  marked by a chhorten and prayer flags.  Going down from here to the  Kabeli Khola will be another exercise of rock-hopping over boulders,  treeroots, and intersecting stream channels as we head upstream.  We  then climb gently to Yamphudin, a mixed community of Sherpas, Limbus,  Rais, and Gurungs. Overnight in tea house.

From this ridge we follow a steep set of switchbacks  leading downhill through damp orchid-filled forests, crossing streams  and isolated clearings used by herders. We stay above the wild river and  follow it upstream to Torontan, where there are a few campsites close  to the river or a little further ahead near a few caves.  Continuing on,  we reach to Tseram, where we stay the night.
