Langtang Region Trekking
Langtang region, populated by Sherpas and Tamang communities, is a narrow valley sandwiched between the main Himalayan range to the north and a slightly lower range of snowy peaks to the south. It lies just south of the Tibetan border. The three major areas, Langtang, Helambu and Gosainkunda, can be combined in many different ways to make trek from 7 to 24 days. Most of this area is National Park land noted for its birds and flowers. It is dominated by Langtang Lirung (7246 m.) at the north, Gang Chhenpo (6388 m.) to the south and Dorje Lakpa (6975 m.) to the east.
A trek to this isolated region offers an opportunity to explore villages many artful monasteries, and chance to see variety of animals Wild Dog, Red Panda, Pika, Muntjac, Musk Deer, Himalayan Black Bear, Himalayan Tahr, Ghoral, Serow, Rhesus Monkey and Common Langur. One can climb small peaks and visit glorious glaciers at a comfortably low elevation.
Gosainkunda, an area of high altitude lakes, is reached either from Dhunche or Sundarijal in the eastern part of the Kathmandu valley. Thousands of Hindu and Budhhist pilgrims visit these lakes during the full moon festival in August. Gosainkunda lake is believed to have been created by Lord Shiva. Adding Gosainkunda Lakes and crossing the Laurabina pass adds to the challenge and enjoyment of a Langtang Trek. Crossing the pass in spring can be more difficult because of snow conditions.
