Langtang Gosaikunda Trek

Langtang Gosaikunda trek is itself is a good choice for all trekkers. They remain remarkably beautiful. In addition, the trails are less crowded and the people are friendly. The people are all Tamang and Sherpa who is the ethnic group for this area. We can explore their culture and way of living. Kyanjing Ri or Tsergo Ri (Cherko Ri), holy Gosaikunda lake or Nilkantha Kunda and Lauribina Pass with helambu are another attraction of this trek.

Langtang Gosaikunda trek starts after 7-8 hours of driving from Kathmandu to Syabrubensi. A little further up the valley is Langtang village is  which was swept away by Earthquake on 25th April 2015 and rebuilt now and Kyanjin Gompa, where we stop overnight and test the local yak cheese. We pass through Nubamatang, nestled in a hidden valley, on our way up to view the glaciers, which mark the gateway into Tilman Col, a high mountaineering route to Jugal Himal that crosses a steep and difficult icefall on the south side.

We also can hike to Kyanjing Ri or Tsergo Ri (Tserko Ri) which offer spectacular views of Naya Kanga (5,846m), Ponggen Dopku (5,930m), Mt Langtang Lirung (7245m ), Yala peak, Dorje Lakpa(6966m), Urkeinmang (6387m), Loenpo Gang (6979) and Kangchenpo. Backtracking, we travel through Syabru village and Sing Gompa to a high plateau, where the sacred lake Gosainkunda is located.

Gosaikunda Lake is also known as Nilkantha Kunda. Gosaikund Lake has a black rock in the middle, said to be the head of Shiva. according to legend, Shiva created this high-altitude lake when he pierced a glacier with his trident (Trishul) to obtain water to quench his thirst after consuming poison gathered from the churning of the oceans ( the poison is the reason why Shiva is depicted with a blue throat).

There is a white rock under the water which is said to be the remnant of an ancient Shiva shrine. It is also said that the water from this lake disappears underground via a subterranean channel and surfaces in the Kumbeshwar pool, next to the Five-Storey Shiva temple in Patan, more than 60km away. Thousands of people come here to worship and bathe during the full moon festival each August. Crossing theLaurebina Pass (4610m), we continue south, leaving the Langtang region behind us as we travel through the Helambu Valley. From here, it’s just a few days' trek back to Kathmandu.

Trekking Adventures: Discovering the Marvels of Kanchenjunga and Langtang Gosaikunda

Nepal, with its spectacular mountain ranges and pristine natural beauty, has long been a mecca for trekkers from around the world. Among the numerous trekking destinations in the country, the trek to Kanchenjunga and the Langtang Gosaikunda region stand out as two remarkable journeys that promise awe-inspiring landscapes and unforgettable experiences.

Kanchenjunga, the third-highest peak in the world, is located in eastern Nepal, near the border with India. The Kanchenjunga Trek is an off-the-beaten-path adventure that takes trekkers to the base of this majestic mountain. The journey is known for its remote and untouched wilderness, offering an opportunity to immerse in the natural splendor of the region.

The Kanchenjunga Trek typically begins in the village of Taplejung and passes through diverse landscapes, ranging from lush subtropical forests to alpine meadows adorned with blooming rhododendron flowers. As trekkers ascend higher, they are greeted with breathtaking views of Kanchenjunga's snow-capped peaks, as well as other neighboring summits like Jannu, Makalu, and Everest.

One of the highlights of the Kanchenjunga Trek is the chance to interact with the local ethnic communities of Limbu and Rai. Their warm hospitality and unique cultural practices offer a glimpse into the traditional way of life in these remote mountain villages. Trekkers can learn about the locals' reliance on agriculture and animal husbandry for their livelihoods, further enriching the trekking experience.

Moving westward, the Langtang Gosaikunda Trek presents an entirely different but equally captivating adventure. Situated to the north of Kathmandu, the Langtang region is renowned for its close proximity to the Tibetan border and its striking landscapes that blend majestic mountains, tranquil valleys, and ancient monasteries.

The journey starts in Syabrubesi and ventures into the Langtang Valley, passing through dense forests and picturesque Tamang villages. Trekkers are rewarded with glimpses of rare wildlife, including the elusive Red Panda, as well as the chance to experience the local Tamang culture and traditions.

As the trail ascends, the sacred Gosaikunda Lake comes into view. Situated at an altitude of 4,380 meters, this pristine glacial lake is a revered pilgrimage site for both Hindus and Buddhists. Surrounded by snow-capped peaks, the lake's serene waters are believed to have religious significance and are a sight to behold.

Both the Kanchenjunga and Langtang Gosaikunda treks are physically demanding and require a good level of fitness. However, the effort is rewarded with unparalleled natural beauty and cultural immersion that create lasting memories.

In conclusion, Nepal's trekking adventures are as diverse as they are breathtaking. The trek to Kanchenjunga and the Langtang Gosaikunda region are two extraordinary journeys that offer a blend of scenic wonders and cultural exploration. Whether you seek the solitude of unexplored territories or the spiritual tranquility of sacred lakes, these treks have it all, making them must-try experiences for trekking enthusiasts worldwide.
