Langtang Gosaikunda Trek is one of the famous Trekking destinations in the Langtang region With Team Himalaya, embark on a memorable and beautiful journey to the most picturesque regions of central Nepal –Langtang and Gosaikunda. The Langtang Gosaikunda Trek will take you on an unforgettable journey through the lush green forests, centuries-old villages, and exotic and rich ecosystems towards the snowy alpine vicinity for the most amazing view of the central mountains. The 15-day-long Langtang Gosaikunda Trek will begin with a memorable 8-hour-long bus ride from Kathmandu to SyabruBesi in Rasuwa district. We will begin our trekking journey from SybaruBesi and trek through old-fashioned villages like Lama Hotel and Langtang village to reach KyanjinGompa. The Gompa is one of the oldest in the region and poses high religious significance.
From there, we will trek down to ThuloSyabru and subsequently Shing Gompa, another important pilgrim site in the region. From there, we will trek towards our main destination – Gosaikunda. While returning, we will take a different route to explore the region some more. We will trek down to Sundarijal via Gopte, Kutumsang, Gulbhanjyang, and Chisopani. The trek comes to an end at Sundarijal from where we will travel back to Kathmandu for a city heritage tour.
The relatively less visited Langtang region is a Himalayan Shangri-La, so close to the proximity of the city life. After being hugely affected by the 2015 earthquake, the region has been reopened for trekking. The trail leads through a diverse landscape ranging from lush forests to pouring streams and mountain vegetation. Throughout the trek and from several viewpoints, we can relish in the excellent views of mountains like Langtang Lirung, Dorje Lakpa, Gang Chhenpo, and Lenpo Gang amongst other satellite peaks. Since the region houses over 70 glaciers, we can also see the amazing glaciers sourced from the mountains. There are also over a dozen big and small alpine lakes like DudhKunda and VairavKunda in the region, which we can visit by extending and modifying the itinerary.
Another main highlight of the Langtang Gosaikunda trek is the famous Gosaikunda Lake at an elevation of 4,380m after crossing the enthralling Gosaikunda Pass at an elevation of 4,609m. The sight of the pristine alpine lake with its rich turquoise hues and the views of the silver peaks reflecting it make it a truly gratifying experience for every trekker. Other perks of the Langtang Gosaikunda Trek are enjoying the sunrise and sunset views of mountains from different viewpoints, the views of several icy glaciers and lakes, lying down in yak pastures, and the hikes through magical rhododendron forests. It will also be an excellent spiritual and cultural journey as we will visit the two major Gompas of the region take blessing from the Lamas, and experience the rich culture of the native inhabitants – Tamangs. Since the region is protected largely under the Langtang National Park Act, we also have good chances of sightings of exotic Himalayan animals like red panda, Himalayan Thar, musk deer, and snow leopard.
Upon your arrival in Kathmandu, you will be warmly greeted by our Team Himalaya staff. They will provide you with a courteous transfer to your hotel, located in the vibrant Thamel area. Known for its bustling markets and a plethora of world-class restaurants, pubs, and bakeries, Thamel offers a unique shopping and dining experience.
During this time, our knowledgeable guide will brief you on the exciting trekking adventure that awaits you. They will provide you with all the necessary details about the Scenic Langtang Valley and the Sacred Gosainkunda trekking routes. Get ready to embark on an unforgettable journey through the breathtaking landscapes of Nepal.
The journey begins with a scenic drive from Kathmandu Valley, heading northwest towards the beautiful Kakani and then reaching the warm Trisuli Bazaar for refreshments and lunch. After a well-deserved rest, the drive continues, taking you up the high hills on a narrow, winding road. Along the way, you'll be treated to breathtaking views of the surrounding landscapes and distant peaks like Ganesh and Manaslu Himal.
After a few hours of driving, you'll arrive at Dunche town, situated at an altitude of 1,965 meters. This town serves as the headquarters for the Rasuwa and Langtang region, as well as the entrance to Langtang National Park. Following a brief stop here, the drive descends on a winding downhill road for a few hours until you reach Syabrubesi, where you'll spend the night. Syabrubesi is an interesting Tamang village and serves as a gateway to many Langtang and Ganesh Himal trekking routes, as well as the northern frontier of Tibet.
Embark on the first leg of this thrilling adventure with a leisurely stroll towards a bridge over the upper Trisuli or BhotKosi River. From there, the trail gradually ascends a steep hillside after an hour of uphill climbing. As you continue on a gentle path for a few hours, you will pass by numerous scattered farmhouses boasting terraces filled with crops like wheat, barley, millet, and corn. Eventually, you will reach Riverside, where the trail from Thulo or upper Syabru converges near Bamboo. Here, you can take a break and refresh yourself at one of the few tea houses and lodges available.
After a well-deserved rest, the journey continues with a gradual ascent through a tranquil forest adorned with rhododendron, oak, and pine trees. Soon, you will enter a captivating river gorge, following the upstream flow of the Trisuli River, which is fed by the glaciers of the Langtang mountain range. After a rewarding hike, you will finally arrive at Lama Hotel, a charming little place nestled amidst a pristine forest. Here, you can find 6-8 small lodges where you can spend the night and rejuvenate for the next leg of your adventure.
Starting from Lama Hotel, we embark on a morning walk along the same trail for about an hour. As we reach Riverside, our route takes a turn and leads us through a charming little settlement known as Bamboo. This area is surrounded by bamboo thickets and is the perfect spot to catch a glimpse of the elusive Red Panda. Nestled in a river gorge with dense woodland, Bamboo offers a cooler climate and a picturesque landscape.
The walk takes us through small settlements and farms until we reach Ghoretabla, a quaint village with a few lodges and Nepal Army stations serving as Park wardens. Here, we pause for a well-deserved lunch, enjoying the gradually increasing altitude and the refreshing coolness of the air.
The journey continues after a satisfying lunch, with a pleasant walk towards Langtang village. This charming village is of moderate size and is inhabited by the Tamang and Bhotia tribes. These communities share similar customs and cultures, influenced by Tibetan Buddhism. Langtang village offers a delightful overnight stop, where you can immerse yourself in the local traditions and experience the warmth of the people.
Today, embark on a leisurely walk for a few hours as the morning unfolds. The trail begins with a short climb, leading you into a wider and more expansive landscape. As you progress, the gorge opens up to reveal a beautiful valley adorned with snow-capped peaks on both sides of the hills. Along the way, you will come across prayer walls, adding to the spiritual ambiance of the surroundings. Take a moment to soak in the breathtaking mountain views before continuing your journey. Eventually, you will reach the Kyanjin Gompa area, where you can find more than 15 lodges and guest houses to accommodate your stay.
Here, you will also come across an old cheese factory, which serves as a testament to the rich history of the area. It is worth noting that the name "Gompa" is gradually disappearing, as the structure is now more of a small wooden chapel rather than a monastery. Perched atop Kyanjin and Langtang Valley, this quaint structure is surrounded by moraine rocks and boulders, offering a unique setting. This marks the beginning of the highlight of your trip, as Kyanjin in the Langtang Valley is truly a remarkable place.
Kyanjin is an idyllic and perfect place to take a rest day during your trek. It offers numerous options for side trips, including a challenging hike up to TsergoRi, which stands at an impressive altitude of 5,033 meters. This ascent requires a good level of physical fitness, but the breathtaking views of the highest mountains in the central Himalayas make it well worth the effort.
In the afternoon, you can leisurely explore the area and marvel at the magnificent panorama of ChimsedangLekh and the KangjalHimal, a ridge of peaks that borders the valley to the south. You will be treated to stunning views of the majestic mountains that flank the Langtang Valley, such as Ganchenpo (6,387m), DorjeLakpa (6,990m), PemthangKarpoRi (6,830m), and Langtang Lirung (7,245m). Additionally, across the northern boundary in Tibet, you can catch a glimpse of the massive and awe-inspiring Shishapangma (8,046m), which is the 14th highest mountain in the world.
After experiencing the beauty and tranquility of Kyanjin Gompa in the enchanting Langtang Valley, it's time to make your way back to the forested area and reach Lama Hotel for an overnight stay. The return journey follows the same route, providing an opportunity to revisit familiar landscapes and relive cherished memories. The walk back will take approximately six hours, and although it involves a downhill path with a few short uphill sections, it remains interesting and enjoyable. Take your time to soak in the surroundings and appreciate the natural wonders that surround you.
Continuing our journey from Lama Hotel, we will be treated to breathtaking views as we walk along a scenic downhill path toward Bamboo. Along the way, we will pass by a few teahouses and lodges, providing us with the perfect opportunity to take a break and enjoy the surroundings. After a delightful morning walk, we will find ourselves walking through terraces filled with crops like millet, corn, and wheat, depending on the season.
As we leave the farm area behind, the path will lead us uphill, passing through old landslide sections. We will continue our ascent on a winding uphill path, eventually reaching Upper or ThuloSyabru, where we will spend the night in one of the excellent lodges available in this charming and fascinating village. It's worth noting that the houses in ThuloSyabru are joined together, resembling a long locomotive. Additionally, above the village, there is an old monastery that adds to the cultural and spiritual ambiance of the area.
After leaving ThuloSyabru, today's walk is relatively short, lasting about 4-5 hours. However, the scenery along the way is truly breathtaking, with picturesque hills, valleys, and snow-capped peaks. As you climb through the pristine forest, you will be surrounded by a variety of trees, including rhododendrons, magnolia, and different types of firs and pines. The forest is also home to various species of rhododendron plants and flowers, adding a burst of color to the landscape. Don't forget to look back and admire the stunning views of the Annapurna, Ganesh, and Langtang Himal ranges to the northwest.
After a few hours of climbing, you will reach a hilltop with a grazing pasture and a few teahouses, providing a perfect spot to rest and take in the surroundings. From here, the path gradually winds through a pleasant and cool forest, offering a refreshing shade. Eventually, you will arrive at Shing Gompa, also known as Chandanbari or Rose Wood. This serene place is home to a small cheese processing factory and a monastery, adding to its charm and cultural significance. Take your time to explore and appreciate the tranquility of this unique.
Heading from this beautiful scenic spot in the morning, the trek takes you to one of the highlights of this amazing adventure. The journey begins with a gradual ascent to Laurabina Hill, offering breathtaking views of the Western Himalayas and the Langtang mountain range. Leaving behind the dense forests and tree lines, you pass through a landscape adorned with rhododendron and juniper bushes before reaching LauriBinayak at an elevation of 3,932 meters (12,900 feet) via Laurebina and CholangPati.
After a well-deserved rest at LauriBinayak, where you can soak in the magnificent scenery, the trail continues uphill for a short while before descending towards the holy Gosaikund.
Gosaikund holds great religious significance for both Hindus and Buddhists. According to ancient Hindu scriptures, Gosaikund is a sacred pond believed to be the hermitage of Lord Shiva, one of the three main Hindu deities, and Goddess Gauri. Legend has it that this pristine pond was formed when Lord Shiva dug the land with his holy Trident weapon, known as Trishul, to dilute the poison and save the world. Every year, thousands of Hindu and Buddhist pilgrims from Nepal and India visit Gosaikund to pay homage to Lord Shiva, especially during the auspicious festival of JanaiPurnima in August. On this day, Hindu men change their holy threads after taking a purifying bath in the icy waters of this sacred pond.
Today's trek is undoubtedly one of the most challenging days of this trip, as we embark on a steep climb to cross the Laurabina Eastern Pass, standing proudly at an impressive altitude of 4,609 meters (15,121 feet). This pass not only marks the highest point of our adventure but also offers breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding landscapes. We begin our morning walk by passing the pristine Gosaikunda pond, heading towards the east until we reach the final pass of this remarkable journey. From there, we begin a mostly downhill descent with a few ups and downs along the way.
Eventually, we will reach our overnight stop at the charming village of Gopte, nestled in the midst of a lush forest adorned with juniper, rhododendron, and pine trees. This village is situated between the Langtang and Helambu areas, providing a tranquil and picturesque setting for our well-deserved rest.
After a pleasant morning walk through the forest from Gopte, the trail gradually winds its way, with a short steep climb, to the ridge at Thadepati (3,597 m). This is where the paths from Helambu and Kathmandu converge. Thadepati offers stunning views of snow-capped mountains and breathtaking scenery of rolling hills and valleys. There are 5-6 lodges and teahouses at this spot. After a refreshing break, the journey continues downhill for most of the way to our overnight stop at Kutumsang village. The walk is delightful, passing through lovely forests and a picturesque place called Mange Ghot. Finally, we arrived at Kutumsang village after a challenging six-hour trek.
Continuing the journey towards the Kathmandu Valley area, we reach Chisopani with a short uphill walk through farmlands, small villages, and captivating forests. The path leads us to Patibanjayang village, where we are greeted with breathtaking views of snow-capped mountains and stunning landscapes. After an hour of uphill trekking, we arrive at Chisopanidanda, our final overnight stop in the high hills before concluding our trip in Kathmandu. Chisopani village, with its 5-6 lodges, is a scenic place situated at the hilltop, offering panoramic views of the Langtang-JugalHimal range, Ganesh Himal-Manaslu, Annapurna range, surrounding landscapes, and the Kathmandu valley below. This spot is renowned for its mesmerizing sunrise and sunset vistas
Witness the breathtaking morning sunrise as it illuminates the snow-capped mountains, marking the final day of this incredible adventure. Traverse through untouched forests and picturesque farmlands on a gentle descent, passing by charming traditional Tamang villages like Burlang and ChepuBhanjyang, situated at an elevation of 2,438m. Marvel at the panoramic views of the Kathmandu Valley as you make your way downhill, eventually arriving at the enchanting Sundarijal.
This idyllic location, adorned with lush forests, playful monkeys, and crystal-clear streams, serves as a popular getaway for Kathmandu residents seeking respite from bustling city life. Sundarijal holds historical significance, having been a summer retreat for the Rana regime in the 1950s. After a short hour-long descent from here, you will return to the outskirts of the eastern Kathmandu valley. A brief drive will then take you back to the heart of Kathmandu city, where you can retire to your respective hotels, reminiscing about the unforgettable moments spent amidst the majestic Himalayas with Team Himalaya.
On the final day of your incredible Himalayan trekking experience in the scenic Langtang Valley and sacred Gosainkunda region, you will bid farewell to Team Himalaya and head back to the airport for your flight home or to your respective destination. As you depart Nepal, you will carry with you cherished memories of the breathtaking landscapes, warm hospitality, and unforgettable moments spent amidst the majestic Himalayas. The journey may be ending, but the spirit of adventure and the beauty of the Himalayas will stay with you forever.
Langtang National Park covers a total area of 660 sq miles in the Nuwakot, Rasuwa, and Sindhupalchowk districts of the central part of Nepal.
It is not a good idea to drink water directly from taps or small streams. It can make you go through a difficult time. So, to be cautious, it is better to use water purifying tablets to make the water safe enough to drink.
The treks in the Langtang Region exceed 3000m in elevation. So, the risk of getting altitude sickness is not uncertain. Our guides will care for you in case you suffer from altitude sickness. In case of emergency, a helicopter rescue will be called immediately

Generally, autumn (September-November) is one of the best times to go on a trek in Nepal. You will experience a wide-angle view of mountains and hills. The sky is clear with moderate temperatures.

There is no age restriction so, you can certainly take children with you.
We suggest you get your travel insurance from your respective country. This is because sometimes uncertain events may occur and helicopter rescue becomes necessary.
In recent years, mobile network facilitators have extended their services even in the mountain region. This means you won’t have any problem reaching out to your loved ones during the trek.

One of the best adventures to enjoy around the Himalayas, not that hard or easy but it was a moderate adventure. I would like to recommend it to all visitors who are interested in the high-altitude trek in Nepal. An enjoyable and great walk from the lovely forest of rhododendrons and pines to the scenic valley of Langtang.
The guides of Team Himalaya were professional and expert in choosing the best lodge available throughout the trek. Providing excellent services with great information on the local culture, religion as well as flora and fauna of Langtang Gosainkund Trek.

Your Trekking & Tour Partner
Langtang Gosaikunda Trek is one of the famous Trekking destinations in the Langtang region With Team Himalaya, embark on a memorable and beautiful journey to the most picturesque regions of central Nepal –Langtang and Gosaikunda. The Langtang Gosaikunda Trek will take you on an unforgettable journey through the lush green forests, centuries-old villages, and exotic and rich ecosystems towards the snowy alpine vicinity for the most amazing view of the central mountains. The 15-day-long Langtang Gosaikunda Trek will begin with a memorable 8-hour-long bus ride from Kathmandu to SyabruBesi in Rasuwa district. We will begin our trekking journey from SybaruBesi and trek through old-fashioned villages like Lama Hotel and Langtang village to reach KyanjinGompa. The Gompa is one of the oldest in the region and poses high religious significance.
From there, we will trek down to ThuloSyabru and subsequently Shing Gompa, another important pilgrim site in the region. From there, we will trek towards our main destination – Gosaikunda. While returning, we will take a different route to explore the region some more. We will trek down to Sundarijal via Gopte, Kutumsang, Gulbhanjyang, and Chisopani. The trek comes to an end at Sundarijal from where we will travel back to Kathmandu for a city heritage tour.
The relatively less visited Langtang region is a Himalayan Shangri-La, so close to the proximity of the city life. After being hugely affected by the 2015 earthquake, the region has been reopened for trekking. The trail leads through a diverse landscape ranging from lush forests to pouring streams and mountain vegetation. Throughout the trek and from several viewpoints, we can relish in the excellent views of mountains like Langtang Lirung, Dorje Lakpa, Gang Chhenpo, and Lenpo Gang amongst other satellite peaks. Since the region houses over 70 glaciers, we can also see the amazing glaciers sourced from the mountains. There are also over a dozen big and small alpine lakes like DudhKunda and VairavKunda in the region, which we can visit by extending and modifying the itinerary.
Another main highlight of the Langtang Gosaikunda trek is the famous Gosaikunda Lake at an elevation of 4,380m after crossing the enthralling Gosaikunda Pass at an elevation of 4,609m. The sight of the pristine alpine lake with its rich turquoise hues and the views of the silver peaks reflecting it make it a truly gratifying experience for every trekker. Other perks of the Langtang Gosaikunda Trek are enjoying the sunrise and sunset views of mountains from different viewpoints, the views of several icy glaciers and lakes, lying down in yak pastures, and the hikes through magical rhododendron forests. It will also be an excellent spiritual and cultural journey as we will visit the two major Gompas of the region take blessing from the Lamas, and experience the rich culture of the native inhabitants – Tamangs. Since the region is protected largely under the Langtang National Park Act, we also have good chances of sightings of exotic Himalayan animals like red panda, Himalayan Thar, musk deer, and snow leopard.
Upon your arrival in Kathmandu, you will be warmly greeted by our Team Himalaya staff. They will provide you with a courteous transfer to your hotel, located in the vibrant Thamel area. Known for its bustling markets and a plethora of world-class restaurants, pubs, and bakeries, Thamel offers a unique shopping and dining experience.

The journey begins with a scenic drive from Kathmandu Valley, heading northwest towards the beautiful Kakani and then reaching the warm Trisuli Bazaar for refreshments and lunch. After a well-deserved rest, the drive continues, taking you up the high hills on a narrow, winding road. Along the way, you'll be treated to breathtaking views of the surrounding landscapes and distant peaks like Ganesh and Manaslu Himal.
After a few hours of driving, you'll arrive at Dunche town, situated at an altitude of 1,965 meters. This town serves as the headquarters for the Rasuwa and Langtang region, as well as the entrance to Langtang National Park. Following a brief stop here, the drive descends on a winding downhill road for a few hours until you reach Syabrubesi, where you'll spend the night. Syabrubesi is an interesting Tamang village and serves as a gateway to many Langtang and Ganesh Himal trekking routes, as well as the northern frontier of Tibet.
Embark on the first leg of this thrilling adventure with a leisurely stroll towards a bridge over the upper Trisuli or BhotKosi River. From there, the trail gradually ascends a steep hillside after an hour of uphill climbing. As you continue on a gentle path for a few hours, you will pass by numerous scattered farmhouses boasting terraces filled with crops like wheat, barley, millet, and corn. Eventually, you will reach Riverside, where the trail from Thulo or upper Syabru converges near Bamboo. Here, you can take a break and refresh yourself at one of the few tea houses and lodges available.
After a well-deserved rest, the journey continues with a gradual ascent through a tranquil forest adorned with rhododendron, oak, and pine trees. Soon, you will enter a captivating river gorge, following the upstream flow of the Trisuli River, which is fed by the glaciers of the Langtang mountain range. After a rewarding hike, you will finally arrive at Lama Hotel, a charming little place nestled amidst a pristine forest. Here, you can find 6-8 small lodges where you can spend the night and rejuvenate for the next leg of your adventure.
Starting from Lama Hotel, we embark on a morning walk along the same trail for about an hour. As we reach Riverside, our route takes a turn and leads us through a charming little settlement known as Bamboo. This area is surrounded by bamboo thickets and is the perfect spot to catch a glimpse of the elusive Red Panda. Nestled in a river gorge with dense woodland, Bamboo offers a cooler climate and a picturesque landscape.
The walk takes us through small settlements and farms until we reach Ghoretabla, a quaint village with a few lodges and Nepal Army stations serving as Park wardens. Here, we pause for a well-deserved lunch, enjoying the gradually increasing altitude and the refreshing coolness of the air.
The journey continues after a satisfying lunch, with a pleasant walk towards Langtang village. This charming village is of moderate size and is inhabited by the Tamang and Bhotia tribes. These communities share similar customs and cultures, influenced by Tibetan Buddhism. Langtang village offers a delightful overnight stop, where you can immerse yourself in the local traditions and experience the warmth of the people.
Today, embark on a leisurely walk for a few hours as the morning unfolds. The trail begins with a short climb, leading you into a wider and more expansive landscape. As you progress, the gorge opens up to reveal a beautiful valley adorned with snow-capped peaks on both sides of the hills. Along the way, you will come across prayer walls, adding to the spiritual ambiance of the surroundings. Take a moment to soak in the breathtaking mountain views before continuing your journey. Eventually, you will reach the Kyanjin Gompa area, where you can find more than 15 lodges and guest houses to accommodate your stay.
Here, you will also come across an old cheese factory, which serves as a testament to the rich history of the area. It is worth noting that the name "Gompa" is gradually disappearing, as the structure is now more of a small wooden chapel rather than a monastery. Perched atop Kyanjin and Langtang Valley, this quaint structure is surrounded by moraine rocks and boulders, offering a unique setting. This marks the beginning of the highlight of your trip, as Kyanjin in the Langtang Valley is truly a remarkable place.
Kyanjin is an idyllic and perfect place to take a rest day during your trek. It offers numerous options for side trips, including a challenging hike up to TsergoRi, which stands at an impressive altitude of 5,033 meters. This ascent requires a good level of physical fitness, but the breathtaking views of the highest mountains in the central Himalayas make it well worth the effort.
In the afternoon, you can leisurely explore the area and marvel at the magnificent panorama of ChimsedangLekh and the KangjalHimal, a ridge of peaks that borders the valley to the south. You will be treated to stunning views of the majestic mountains that flank the Langtang Valley, such as Ganchenpo (6,387m), DorjeLakpa (6,990m), PemthangKarpoRi (6,830m), and Langtang Lirung (7,245m). Additionally, across the northern boundary in Tibet, you can catch a glimpse of the massive and awe-inspiring Shishapangma (8,046m), which is the 14th highest mountain in the world.
After experiencing the beauty and tranquility of Kyanjin Gompa in the enchanting Langtang Valley, it's time to make your way back to the forested area and reach Lama Hotel for an overnight stay. The return journey follows the same route, providing an opportunity to revisit familiar landscapes and relive cherished memories. The walk back will take approximately six hours, and although it involves a downhill path with a few short uphill sections, it remains interesting and enjoyable. Take your time to soak in the surroundings and appreciate the natural wonders that surround you.
Continuing our journey from Lama Hotel, we will be treated to breathtaking views as we walk along a scenic downhill path toward Bamboo. Along the way, we will pass by a few teahouses and lodges, providing us with the perfect opportunity to take a break and enjoy the surroundings. After a delightful morning walk, we will find ourselves walking through terraces filled with crops like millet, corn, and wheat, depending on the season.
As we leave the farm area behind, the path will lead us uphill, passing through old landslide sections. We will continue our ascent on a winding uphill path, eventually reaching Upper or ThuloSyabru, where we will spend the night in one of the excellent lodges available in this charming and fascinating village. It's worth noting that the houses in ThuloSyabru are joined together, resembling a long locomotive. Additionally, above the village, there is an old monastery that adds to the cultural and spiritual ambiance of the area.
After leaving ThuloSyabru, today's walk is relatively short, lasting about 4-5 hours. However, the scenery along the way is truly breathtaking, with picturesque hills, valleys, and snow-capped peaks. As you climb through the pristine forest, you will be surrounded by a variety of trees, including rhododendrons, magnolia, and different types of firs and pines. The forest is also home to various species of rhododendron plants and flowers, adding a burst of color to the landscape. Don't forget to look back and admire the stunning views of the Annapurna, Ganesh, and Langtang Himal ranges to the northwest.
After a few hours of climbing, you will reach a hilltop with a grazing pasture and a few teahouses, providing a perfect spot to rest and take in the surroundings. From here, the path gradually winds through a pleasant and cool forest, offering a refreshing shade. Eventually, you will arrive at Shing Gompa, also known as Chandanbari or Rose Wood. This serene place is home to a small cheese processing factory and a monastery, adding to its charm and cultural significance. Take your time to explore and appreciate the tranquility of this unique.
Heading from this beautiful scenic spot in the morning, the trek takes you to one of the highlights of this amazing adventure. The journey begins with a gradual ascent to Laurabina Hill, offering breathtaking views of the Western Himalayas and the Langtang mountain range. Leaving behind the dense forests and tree lines, you pass through a landscape adorned with rhododendron and juniper bushes before reaching LauriBinayak at an elevation of 3,932 meters (12,900 feet) via Laurebina and CholangPati.
After a well-deserved rest at LauriBinayak, where you can soak in the magnificent scenery, the trail continues uphill for a short while before descending towards the holy Gosaikund.
Gosaikund holds great religious significance for both Hindus and Buddhists. According to ancient Hindu scriptures, Gosaikund is a sacred pond believed to be the hermitage of Lord Shiva, one of the three main Hindu deities, and Goddess Gauri. Legend has it that this pristine pond was formed when Lord Shiva dug the land with his holy Trident weapon, known as Trishul, to dilute the poison and save the world. Every year, thousands of Hindu and Buddhist pilgrims from Nepal and India visit Gosaikund to pay homage to Lord Shiva, especially during the auspicious festival of JanaiPurnima in August. On this day, Hindu men change their holy threads after taking a purifying bath in the icy waters of this sacred pond.
Today's trek is undoubtedly one of the most challenging days of this trip, as we embark on a steep climb to cross the Laurabina Eastern Pass, standing proudly at an impressive altitude of 4,609 meters (15,121 feet). This pass not only marks the highest point of our adventure but also offers breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding landscapes. We begin our morning walk by passing the pristine Gosaikunda pond, heading towards the east until we reach the final pass of this remarkable journey. From there, we begin a mostly downhill descent with a few ups and downs along the way.
Eventually, we will reach our overnight stop at the charming village of Gopte, nestled in the midst of a lush forest adorned with juniper, rhododendron, and pine trees. This village is situated between the Langtang and Helambu areas, providing a tranquil and picturesque setting for our well-deserved rest.
After a pleasant morning walk through the forest from Gopte, the trail gradually winds its way, with a short steep climb, to the ridge at Thadepati (3,597 m). This is where the paths from Helambu and Kathmandu converge. Thadepati offers stunning views of snow-capped mountains and breathtaking scenery of rolling hills and valleys. There are 5-6 lodges and teahouses at this spot. After a refreshing break, the journey continues downhill for most of the way to our overnight stop at Kutumsang village. The walk is delightful, passing through lovely forests and a picturesque place called Mange Ghot. Finally, we arrived at Kutumsang village after a challenging six-hour trek.
Continuing the journey towards the Kathmandu Valley area, we reach Chisopani with a short uphill walk through farmlands, small villages, and captivating forests. The path leads us to Patibanjayang village, where we are greeted with breathtaking views of snow-capped mountains and stunning landscapes. After an hour of uphill trekking, we arrive at Chisopanidanda, our final overnight stop in the high hills before concluding our trip in Kathmandu. Chisopani village, with its 5-6 lodges, is a scenic place situated at the hilltop, offering panoramic views of the Langtang-JugalHimal range, Ganesh Himal-Manaslu, Annapurna range, surrounding landscapes, and the Kathmandu valley below. This spot is renowned for its mesmerizing sunrise and sunset vistas
Witness the breathtaking morning sunrise as it illuminates the snow-capped mountains, marking the final day of this incredible adventure. Traverse through untouched forests and picturesque farmlands on a gentle descent, passing by charming traditional Tamang villages like Burlang and ChepuBhanjyang, situated at an elevation of 2,438m. Marvel at the panoramic views of the Kathmandu Valley as you make your way downhill, eventually arriving at the enchanting Sundarijal.
This idyllic location, adorned with lush forests, playful monkeys, and crystal-clear streams, serves as a popular getaway for Kathmandu residents seeking respite from bustling city life. Sundarijal holds historical significance, having been a summer retreat for the Rana regime in the 1950s. After a short hour-long descent from here, you will return to the outskirts of the eastern Kathmandu valley. A brief drive will then take you back to the heart of Kathmandu city, where you can retire to your respective hotels, reminiscing about the unforgettable moments spent amidst the majestic Himalayas with Team Himalaya.
On the final day of your incredible Himalayan trekking experience in the scenic Langtang Valley and sacred Gosainkunda region, you will bid farewell to Team Himalaya and head back to the airport for your flight home or to your respective destination. As you depart Nepal, you will carry with you cherished memories of the breathtaking landscapes, warm hospitality, and unforgettable moments spent amidst the majestic Himalayas. The journey may be ending, but the spirit of adventure and the beauty of the Himalayas will stay with you forever.
Langtang National Park covers a total area of 660 sq miles in the Nuwakot, Rasuwa, and Sindhupalchowk districts of the central part of Nepal.
It is not a good idea to drink water directly from taps or small streams. It can make you go through a difficult time. So, to be cautious, it is better to use water purifying tablets to make the water safe enough to drink.
The treks in the Langtang Region exceed 3000m in elevation. So, the risk of getting altitude sickness is not uncertain. Our guides will care for you in case you suffer from altitude sickness. In case of emergency, a helicopter rescue will be called immediately
These are the symptoms of Altitude Sickness.
Generally, autumn (September-November) is one of the best times to go on a trek in Nepal. You will experience a wide-angle view of mountains and hills. The sky is clear with moderate temperatures. Plus, the season is also a festive season, which means you will be able to experience wonderful festivals such as Dashain and Tihar. You can also do the trek during the spring (March-May).
You will be spending your night mostly in tea houses such as simple hotels and lodges. The rooms are small but comfortable. You can ask for extra blankets in case you need it. The tea houses will provide you with food, wifi, charging facilities, etc. It is possible to get a single room in the lower parts of the Langtang region but as you get up higher the chances are low.
There is no age restriction so, you can certainly take children with you.
We suggest you get your travel insurance from your respective country. This is because sometimes uncertain events may occur and helicopter rescue becomes necessary.
In recent years, mobile network facilitators have extended their services even in the mountain region. This means you won’t have any problem reaching out to your loved ones during the trek.
Langtang region is full of specialties. Some of them are:
The difficulty of the Langtang Region Trek is moderate but one should be physically fit to complete the trek. The flexible trek route and enough rest days are going to make your trip less difficult as well.

One of the best adventures to enjoy around the Himalayas, not that hard or easy but it was a moderate adventure. I would like to recommend it to all visitors who are interested in the high-altitude trek in Nepal. An enjoyable and great walk from the lovely forest of rhododendrons and pines to the scenic valley of Langtang.
The guides of Team Himalaya were professional and expert in choosing the best lodge available throughout the trek. Providing excellent services with great information on the local culture, religion as well as flora and fauna of Langtang Gosainkund Trek. The only hardest walk was crossing the high Gosainkunda pass with a long downhill to Ghopte. But the rest of the trek was wonderful and enjoyable thanks to all the staff and guides of Team Himalaya Treks.
