Langtang Gosaikunda Trek

Your group leader will meet you at the airport and take you to the hotel. Initial info about hotel and city. Then, dinner at a Nepali restaurant with a cultural show

Morning city tour of Pashupatinath Temple and Boudhanath Stupa. In the afternoon, there will be a pre-trek briefing and distribution of trek gear.

An early drive for around 5 hours to Sybrubesi and then start trekking. We drive through Dunche, the district headquarters.

We ascend to Kyanjin Gompa via Lama Hotel and Langtang Village. Here, you see the first tantalizing views of Langtang Lirung (7,225 m) and Langtang (3,430 m).

Hike to Kyanjin Ri (4,773 m) for the spectacular views of panoramic peaks. Alternatively, an ascent of Tserko Ri (4,984 m) is challenging for personal fitness. Here, we have an option hike for the enthusiastic trekker to the Ubra glacier nearby.

We descend from Kyanjin Gompa to Thulo Syabru. The village is set up on a long ridge. All houses are against the backdrop of snowy peaks. Charming and friendly local people add to the beauty of the trek.

It is a challenging climb to Foprang Danda, which has superb mountain views. After the Foprang Danda trail, it is almost level to Singompa. We visit the cheese factory of Singompa and the monastery. We see the dark interior is blackened by years of burning candles. A torch will pick out the colorful wall paintings of gods, goddesses, and demons on the walls. The mid-west mountain ranges are open to Ganesh Himal (7,406 m), Manaslu (8,156 m), and the Annapurna. The holy Gosaikunda lakes are the objective of Hindu pilgrims at the time of the full moon in August each year. People make the trek as often barefoot and in little more than thin cotton clothing.

Laurebina pass at the 4610-meter route up to the Pass is marked with cairns. It is a long and strenuous day as you cross the Pass to get into Helambu Valley. Although the Pass is not technically challenging, snow and ice can make walking more demanding. The view from the Laurebina Pass at 4610 meters is superb. You arrive at Ghopte (3,530 m) for an overnight stay at the end of this challenging day.

We descend Chisapan on our way to Kathmandu via Tharepati, Pati Bhanjuan, and Kutungsang. We witness the mountain range of Annapurna in the west, Ganesh Himal in the center, and Numbur in the east.

We customize the airport transfer based on your flight details.
