|

If you have not seen Langtang Valley or been to Gosaikunda, you are yet to discover a truly amazing side of rural Nepal and its natural and cultural heritage. For your convenience, we offer a perfectly planned Langtang and Gosainkund Trek which you can complete in 14 days, exploring the best of Langtang Region. Further, depending on your own personal needs, the package can be customised easily using our knowledge and experience.
Our journey to Langtang Valley and Gosainkund begins from Kathmandu, taking a drive to Trishuli Bazar and from there to Dhunche, the only townlike place in the entire Langtang area and the Rasuwa district. From Dhunche we descend to Syabrubesi, a village inhabited by Sherpas very close to Langtang National Park. We head eastward, crossing Trishuli River several times and enter the valley of Langtang. Oak and rhododendron forests, naturally at their best during spring, are encountered and so is a glacial moraine on our way to Langtang village where Tamang people have settled for centuries.
Kyangin Gompa, which lies further up the valley, is yet another major stopover and is famous for yak cheese. We continue our journey through Nubamatang, a small village nestled in a hidden valley and view several glaciers marking the gateway to Tibet. We then backtrack through Thulo Syabru and Sing Gompa and then to the high plateau where the sacred Gosainkund Lake is situated. You will feel like in heaven because of the outstanding landscape and the pristine atmosphere of the place.
From Gosainkund our journey takes us through Laurebina, Thare Pati, Kutumsang, Chisopani and finally to Kathmandu.
