The Langtang valley is aptly called "the valley
of glaciers". Here the mountain - view is spectacular.
On either side of valley, mountains rise, soaring in
to the sky. The valley offers pain forest, slow moving
rivers and swift mountain streams, rugged rock and snow-
capped peaks. In the upper part of valley there are
snow bridges spanning angry torrents, high passes enveloped
in mist, tiny lake with icebergs floating on them and
water of crystalline brightness. There are also high
mountains of solid ice. Gosainkunda, regarded as sacred
land in Hinduism, is dotted with lakes atop the mountain,
offering a quiet respite. There are few visitors outside
of those who come for the summer festival.
Langtang trek is on the
area of Tibetan culture and home of Yak and Gosainkund
is a great sacred lake on an elevation of 4200m. It
is great combination of mountain and culture different.
The trek starts from Sybru Bensi and ends at sundarijal.
From Sybru Bensi, you will follow the Langtang River
to the east until you get to Kyanching Gompa (3,049).
From here we trek to Tserkuri (5184m) and have an excellent
view of mountain. Then we trek back to Lama Hotel and
ascend to Gosankund. After spending night here we ascend
to Lauribina -La Pass and come to Tarkeghyang and finally
to Sundarijal Where we take bus to Kathmandu. Clients
carry daypack only and walk at their own pace. Trekking
