When is the best season?
The best season for this trek is half of February to
First week of June and September to early December.
Half of February to First week of June: From
the half of February until the first part of June
temperatures are relatively warm, 10 to 15 warmer
than in the fall. Mornings are bright and clear with
the air slowly becoming hazier as the day
progresses. The rhododendron forests in springtime
are spectacular, with color displays that are
"Himalayan" in beauty. June is warm and green with
many fewer people - the sense of solitude is much
greater than other seasons.
September to half of December: September to
early December is an ideal time for the best
mountain views. The days are typically sunny and
clear with moderate temperatures and the evenings
are usually quite cold.
Note: July to
August is the Monsoon period in Nepal. However, it
is possible to do trekking in rain shadow area like
Mustang, Rara, Dolpo, Annapurna circuit, Lantang
valley, Everest base camp and Gokyo valley
respectively. |

Short Description of Langtang Gosainkunda
Langtang Gosaikunda trek combines the remote and
spectacular valley of Langtang, with the high
mountain lakes at Gosainkund. Visit the beautiful
Langtang National park and then trek to the end of
the valley to view the wonderful mountains views.
Following the Trisuli River north out of Kathmandu,
we travel through Trisuli Bazaar and Dhunche to
Syabrubensi, a Sherpa village located at the very
edge of the Langtang National Park. We then swing
east into the Langtang valley, crossing the river
several times as we travel up along a gorge-like,
lower section of the valley. We pass through oak and
rhododendron forests and even cross glacial moraine
on our way to the Tamang village of Langtang.
A little further up the valley is Kyangin Gompa,
where we stop overnight and sample 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 Tibet. Backtracking, we
travel through Syabru and Sing Gompa to a high
plateau, where the sacred lake Gosainkund is
located. Crossing the Llaurebena Pass (4610m), we
continue south, leaving the Langtang region behind
us as we travel through the Helambu valley to Gul
Bhanjyang. |
