After crossing the ridge the trail enters a large side valley and makes a long gradual descent to Samar (3620m), surrounded by a grove of poplar trees.

The trail from Geling turns westward and climbs gently through fields up the centre of the valley, passing below Tama Gaon and its imposing chorten. Turning north, it rejoins the road and becomes an unrelenting climb across the head of the valley to the Nyi La (4020m). The descent from the pass is gentle for 45minutes to the Ghemi La, a cairn on a ridge top about 45 minutes below the pass. The trail then drops steeply to the whitewashed buildings of Ghemi.
