The Langtang Gosaikunda Helambu trek takes you through awe-inspiring mountains, glacial lakes, and Tibetan-influenced Tamang villages. The trek, through the Langtang National Park, begins from Syabrubesi and heads along the Langtang Khola river. You pass through beautiful rhododendron forests, with the possibility of seeing red pandas.

The Langtang Gosaikunda Helambu trek valley is situated below the massive Langtang Lirung (7,200m). The trek leads you up to Kyanjin Gompa, a spiritual setting with colorful monasteries, mani walls, chhortens and prayer flags. From this idyllic location, we move toward the Gosaikunda trail via Shin Gompa. Gosaikunda Lake, a popular pilgrimage destination for Hindus and Buddhists, is surrounded by mountains and other glacial lakes. Crossing the Lauribina Pass (4,610m), we trek down to the Helambu Sherpa valley via Ghopte. Helambu valley is dotted with Sherpa settlements, monasteries, and chhortens.
