This trekking leads you through the Langtang valley eventually taking you to the famous Gosainkunda, a sacred Himalayan lake in the region. Many Hindus and Buddhist people make a pilgrimage there every year. Langtang Valley Trekking is one of the nearest Himalayan trekking from Kathmandu valley. The trip starts with a scenic drive to Dhunche from Kathmandu. Eight hours by bus on a mountain highway through many beautiful areas takes you to Syabrubensi where you spend overnight and prepare for the trekking.

The next few days of trekking take you through beautiful villages and mountain terrains in Langtang valley. From Syabrubensi to Lama hotel; Kyanjin Gompa to Ghoda Tabela and Gosainkunda is a mystical journey in the Himalayas. This wonderful trekking in the Langtang region brings you the memory worthy to cherish.
