Hinkhu Bridge

Historical
A footbridge in the Hinku valley east of the Khumbu, built by the Himalayan Trust in 1971.

Project details

The Himalayan Trust's own project list records a footbridge in the Hinku valley, built in 1971. The Hinku valley lies east of the Khumbu, below Mera Peak, in country cut through by fast-flowing glacial rivers.

No independent account of this bridge has been found in either of the Trust's published histories, so beyond the valley's general location nothing further is confirmed about its construction, its exact crossing point or the Trust's specific role in building it.
