Gosainkunda Trek - 16 Days
It is a remote and high mountain trek in the Langtang region. Following the Trishuli River north out of Kathmandu, we travel through Trishuli Bazaar to Dhunche, a Sherpa village located at the edge of the Langtang National Park. We follow a rugged trail with dramatic views; to the west of Himal Chuli (7893m), Manaslu (8156mm) and Ganesh Himal (7406m). On a clear day, even the Annapurna range can be seen rising up behind and to the north across the valley. We pass a few huts in the high pastures of Laurebina, cross a small ridge and have our first view of the holy lake Gosainkunda.We pass through Oak and Rhododendron forests and trek down to Ghopte after crossing Lauribina La pass. And our trek ends in Sundarijal.
