Langtang, Gosaikunda & Helambu: A combined adventure of rich culture, towering mountains, and holy lakes.

Langtang Gosaikunda Trek is an amazing combination of trekking exploration of two different areas in the Langtang region. Trekking through Langtang Valley and Gosaikunda areas is the ultimate adventure in the region. In addition to being the nearest Himalayan trekking adventure from Kathmandu, this adventure also offers rich spiritual vibes to enjoy.

While the adventure first goes to the Langtang Valley Trek, it continues further to another region of Gosaikunda later. After exploring wonderful places like Kyanjing Village, Tesrko Ri, etc. the trek continues towards the beautiful Gosaikunda region. The region has a beautiful and sacred lake of Gosaikunda that the Hindus and the Buddhists make the pilgrimage to. The region not only sees pilgrims but also a lot of adventure trekkers. You can feel the sacredness of the lake and the spiritual vibes around it once you reach there.

The adventure also takes you over a mountain pass called Lauri Binayak pass after the Gosaikunda exploration. You will trek over the pass on the trail back toward Kathmandu. This is truly an incredible adventure that you will love being at. In addition, you will also explore the beautiful Tamang and Sherpa cultural traditions. The villages of the Tamang and the Sherpa people that you walk past along the trail give a rich cultural immersion during the trip.
