Korean Solo Trekker Breathes His Last in the Heart of the Himalayas After a Fatal Incident

Solo expeditions are captivating, allowing one to immerse oneself in the beauty of nature. Although as exciting as this seems, the practicality of the same is not always reassuring. A tragic incident unfolded where a solo Korean traveler perished during a mission to conquer the treacherous mountain ranges of Himalayas.

The incident was reported after he was found dead in his lodge. It is assumed that the lack of local guidance made life difficult for the hiker to survive the adverse conditions.

Hiking gone wrong as solo traveler found dead in guest house 

According to official reports from Korea’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the visitor’s age was around 20 years. Although no further information is available about the gender or the name, it is reported that the Korean hiker was found dead at a guest house. The guest house is located at Gokyo, Nepal, at an astounding 4750 m above sea level. This settlement is believed to be one of the highest in the world. 

According to reports from The Korean Herald, the visitor probably met his demise while being in the middle of a shower. The 20-year-old was reluctant to take the help of a local guide and was determined to finish the hike on solo terms. 

To prevent such incidents from happening, the Nepal Tourism Board made it a rule not to let solo hikers trek the perilous heights of the Himalayas.
