Langtang Gosaikunda Trekking Nepal - 15 Days
Langtang Gosaikunda trek combines the remote and spectacular
valley of Langtang, with the high mountain lakes at Gosainkund. Visit the
beautiful Langtang National park and then trek to the end of the valley to view
the wonderful mountains views. Following the Trisuli River north out of
Kathmandu, we travel through Trisuli Bazaar and Dhunche to Syabrubensi, a
Sherpa village located at the very edge of the Langtang National Park. We then
swing east into the Langtang valley, crossing the river several times as we
travel up along a gorge-like, lower section of the valley. We pass through oak
and rhododendron forests and even cross glacial moraine on our way to the
Tamang village of Langtang.
A little further up the valley is Kyangin Gompa, where we
stop overnight and sample the local yak cheese. We pass through Nubamatang,
nestled in a hidden valley, on our way up to view the glaciers, which mark the
gateway into Tibet. Backtracking, we travel through Syabru and Sing Gompa to a
high plateau, where the sacred lake Gosainkund is located. Crossing the
Llaurebena Pass (4610m), we continue south, leaving the Langtang region behind
us as we travel through the Helambu valley to Gul Bhanjyang.
The Langtang Himal is a region north part of Kathmandu vally
and it lies just south of Tibetan border. The langtang valley is surrounded by
