The Langtang and Gosainkunda Trek by Nima Adventure is a spectacular 15-day journey that combines the stunning alpine landscapes of the Langtang Valley with the sacred high-altitude lakes of Gosainkunda. This trek offers a diverse experience, from walking through lush rhododendron and bamboo forests to reaching the high alpine zones with panoramic views of Langtang Lirung, the Annapurna range, and Ganesh Himal.
Highlights include the cultural immersion at Kyanjin Gompa, an optional challenging hike to Tsergo Ri (4,985m), and a visit to the holy Gosainkunda Lake (4,380m), a significant pilgrimage site for both Hindus and Buddhists. The journey concludes with a trek through the beautiful ridge-top villages of Helambu before returning to Kathmandu.
Your adventure begins with a warm welcome at Tribhuvan International Airport and a transfer to your hotel in Kathmandu. On the second day, you will take a scenic 6-7 hour jeep drive to Syabrubesi (1,503m), the starting point of your trek into the Langtang region.
The trek follows the river upstream through beautiful forests with Langtang Lirung as your backdrop. You will stay overnight at Lama Hotel and Langtang Village before reaching the final settlement at Kyanjin Gompa (3,830m), where the valley opens up into a dramatic glacial amphitheater.
Day 06 is a free day for an optional scenic hike to the top of Tsergo Ri (4,985m) or Kyanjin Ri to discover mesmerizing mountain panoramas. Afterward, you will retrace your steps downhill through the forested gorge back to Lama Hotel and continue toward the ridge village of Thulo Syabru.
Leaving the Langtang Valley, you will climb through lush rhododendron and bamboo forests to Lauribina, an excellent vantage point for sunrise. A challenging ascent leads you to the sacred Gosainkunda Lake, believed to have been created by Lord Shiva and surrounded by smaller peaks and lakes like Bhairab Kunda.
From the high alpine zone, the trail becomes steep and rugged as you descend through rocky terrain and alpine forests toward Phedi and Tharepati
. You will continue through serene forests of oak and pine, passing through Melamchi Ghyang and ending the day in the village of Tarkigang.
