Overview of Langtang Gosainkunda Trek

This trekking brings you to the Langtang Valley surrounded by Himalayan Peaks. Langtang Lirung (7240 m) and Ganesh Himal are the highest in the region. Trek to the sacred Lakes of Gosainkunda, climb the Gosainkunda pass into the Valley of Helambu. This circuit finishes in the Kathmandu valley a short distance from Kathmandu.

Commence with an overland journey to Dunche, the main trading post of the area. From here we spend four days hiking up through this beautiful alpine valley to Kyangjin where we rest for a day for some exploration of the high mountains and glacial systems. Track back for three days before a journey to the sacred lakes of Gossainkund a major pilgrimage sight for both Hindus and Buddhists. We cross the Lauribinayak pass (4600 m) and drop into the lush Helambu region and different cultural experiences eventually finishing the trek an hours drive from Kathmandu.
