Trip Information

Langtang, Gosaikunda, and Helambu Trek is a perfect combination of the remote and splendid Valley of Langtang with the purest holy lake of Gosaikunda and culturally rich Helambu Valley. The trail lies on the north side of Kathmandu valley near the Tibetan border we known as Langtang Circuit Trek.

The trekking route is highly appealing and most easily accessible from the capital city, Kathmandu. It is a 14 days trek that is quite remote and isolated compared to other popular treks such as Everest Base Camp Trek or Annapurna Base Camp Trek.
The major highlights of this trek are Langtang National Park, Langtang Valley, Kyanjin Gompa, Kyanjin Ri, Laurebina Pass, Gosaikunda Lake, and Helambu cultural village.
