Overview

Join us on an unforgettable 14-day Langtang Valley Trek with Ganja La Pass adventure, leading you deep into the renowned Langtang region and across the high-altitude Ganja La Pass (5,122m/16,800 ft). A highlight of the journey includes an exciting side trip to Tserko Ri (5,000m/16,404ft), which offers stunning panoramic views of the Langtang Himalayan range. One of the biggest draws of the Langtang region is its proximity to Kathmandu, while still offering the remote wilderness reminiscent of the Tibetan highlands. The area is also celebrated for the sacred Gosaikunda Lakes. Along the way, you'll pass through lush rhododendron and bamboo forests, cascading waterfalls, and awe-inspiring snow-covered peaks—making this one of the most diverse treks close to Kathmandu. The highland communities here are ethnically Nepali, yet retain strong Tibetan roots, which is evident in their appearance and culture.

The journey kicks off with a scenic bus ride from Kathmandu to Syabrubesi. From there, the trek begins—passing through Kyanjin Gompa, crossing the formidable Ganja La Pass, and concluding at Melamchi Pul Bazar in the Helambu region. As the trek nears its end, you'll wander through picturesque rice terraces and visit beautiful Buddhist monasteries nestled in the charming villages of Tarke Gyang and Sermathang, before returning to Kathmandu.
