Itinerary
Our representative will meet you at your hotel at around 6.30 am. The trip then starts with a drive of around 6 to 7 hours through lush green forest, meandering road through the hills, and gracefully flowing riverside. We drive out along the northwestern mountains of Kathmandu. Enjoy lunch at Trishuli Bazar before proceeding further to Dhunche. From Dhunche, we go to Syabrubesi.
This is our first day of trekking. We follow the Langtang Khola (river). Pass through the thick woodlands. Cross a few suspension bridges. Pass tea-houses. The trail looks steep, but it isn’t that hard, and is always exciting.
After a morning tea, we set out on our second day of the voyage. Our trail proceeds along thick woods. Revel in the grand views of the Langtang-Lirung. Pass water factories, watch chortens, and see stunning hills that have all kinds of engravings cut on them.
After breakfast, we escape the town and pass through yak pastures. We also cross the biggest Mani divider in Nepal and cross a few wooden scaffolds as well. Since we are truly getting into the high elevations, you may begin to feel the thin mountain air. Kanjin Gompa is encompassed by the Himalayas all around. You can go out for a stroll around Kanjin Gompa appreciating the perspectives, ice sheets, ice-falls and yaks.
Early in the morning, we visit Tserko Ri for stunning sunrise views. The visit takes 4/5 hours uphill and then 4 hours going back downhill to Kyanjin Gompa. Same accommodation.
We visit Kyanjin viewpoint or Kyanjin Ri in the early morning for sunrise views. After breakfast, continue to Lama Hotel. Since it is basically downhill, it is a 5/6 hours stroll from Kanjin Gompa to get to the Lama Hotel. Pass ethnic Tamang settlements.
After breakfast, we trek down to Syabrubensi, which is 5-hour walk. Enjoy the simple, downhill trail through lush green vegetation. Upon arriving at Syabrubesi, we take our lunch. Since we may have some spare time (depends upon the speed of our walk). Enjoy the stunning view of this bizarre hill-town.
After breakfast, we drive back to Kathmandu. Arriving in Kathmandu, we transfer you to your hotel. Spend the day at your own leisure, enjoying a much-deserved rest and revelling in some last moment shopping or sight-seeing.
