Langtang, Gosainkunda and Helambu Trek

Trip Overview

Langtang, Gosainkunda and Helambu Trek is a beautiful journey in Nepal through lush forests, quaint villages, abundant wildlife and astounding views of the majestic Himalayas. The 18-days trek begins in Kathmandu with tours of the city’s UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Then we drive to Syabrubesi which is a Tamang village located on the banks of the Bhote Koshi River and begin our trek. We reach Kyangjin Gompa and then climb Tserko Ri the next day. From there we get tremendous views of the Langtang Lirung (7,234m.) range.

We continue trekking in the beautiful Langtang Valley and reach Gosainkunda lake which is a revered place of pilgrimage for both Buddhists and Hindus. Moreover, the place is named after the glistening Gosainkunda Lake whose water is believed to have magical healing powers. We pass by a few more lakes on our trek and cross the Louribinayak Pass. Our trek in the Helambu Valley begins after crossing the pass. Another highlight of our hike is to reach the top of Ama Yangri at 3,800m. The view of the Himalayas from the top of the hill is believed to rival that of Poon Hill, Annapurna region. From here, Mt. Shishapangma and the Langtang ranges seem so close that we feel that we can almost touch them. We continue trekking in the Helambu region for a few more days and end our remarkable journey to the mountains with a drive to Kathmandu.
