Langtang Helambu Trek

Langtang Helambu Trek is located in the north of Kathmandu. It will take you to Langtang, Gosaikunda and Helambu. Langtang Valley is aptly called the Valley of Glaciers. The view of the mountains here is very spectacular. On either side of the valley, mountains rise, soaring in the sky. The valley offers painstaking forests, slow-flowing rivers and swift mountain streams, rugged cliffs, and snow-capped peaks.

In the upper part of the valley, there are snow bridges spanning angry torrents, high passes enveloped in mist, a tiny lake with icebergs floating on them, and waters of crystalline brightness. There are high mountains of solid ice. Gosainkunda, regarded as sacred land in Hinduism, is dotted with lakes atop the mountain, offering a quiet respite.

Langtang is home to Tibetan culture and the Yak. Gosaikunda is a great sacred lake situated at an altitude of 4,380 m. It has a great combination of mountains and cultural differences. This trek starts from Syabru Besi (1,503 m) and ends at Sundrijal. From Syabru Besi, you will follow the Langtang River to the east until you reach Kyanjin Gompa (3,870 m). From here we hike up to Kyanjin Ri (4,773 m) or Tsergo Ri (4,984 m) for excellent views of the mountains. Then we will go back to Lama Hotel and go to Gosaikunda.

After spending the night at Gosaikunda we cross the Lauribina-La/Gosaikunda Pass (4,610 m) and come to Tharapati, Kutumsang, Chisapani, and finally, you reach Sundarijal where we take a bus/car to Kathmandu. Customers carry only day pack and go at their own pace. Langtang and Helambu Valley Trek is one of the best 2-week treks in Nepal.
