Trip Overview

Langtang and Helambu offers landscapes and cultural experiences every bit as spectacular as anywhere else in Nepal.

Gosain Kunda Trekking to Holy Glacial Lake of Gosaikunda is designed for those trekkers who are restricted by the time in Nepal for its classic mountain treks and want to feel alpine zone and experience Himalaya. Gosaikunda Lake (4,361m.) has great religious significance which is well-known as a pilgrimage site for Hindus who flock to the site in August during Janai Purnima. The first few days are spent ascending through the forests before you reach treeline at Cholang Pati from where you get your first glimpse of the towering Ganesh Himal, Langtang Himal and Annapurna Himalayas in the far distance. Rest for the night at the tea houses and then get up early the following morning to hike up to the lakes and cross Louribinayak Pass (4,609m.). The lake can either be visited as part of the Langtang to Helambu trek or it can be made the solo destination of a trek starting and ending at Dhunche or cross Louribinayak Pass and end at Sundarijal.

Beside 10 days trek, 17 days Langtang and Helambu trek is one of the most spectacular Nepal has to offer. Just north of the Kathmandu Valley, this route is classified as moderate and will take you from the banks of the Bhote Kosi River through the Langtang Valley to the sacred Gosaikunda Lake and the Hyolmo villages of Helambu. You'll see expansive mountain views, travel through lush forests and sleep in Nepali tea houses on this Himalayan adventure.
