Langtang and Helambu is most popular trekking route in Nepal and it is located central on Nepal north of Kathmandu offers a multitude of trekking destinations, all accessible without flights. The three major areas are Langtang, Gosainkund and Helambu, which can be combined in many different ways to make treks from seven to 16 days long.Langtang is a narrow valley that lies just south of the Tibetan border. It is sandwiched between the main Himalayan range to the north and a slightly lower range of snowy peaks to the south.

Ganesh Himal, not frequented by many tourists and situated in central Nepal, northwest of Kathmandu is characterized by the terraced hillsides that seem to climb to the sky. Many interesting ethnic groups and a mixed lifestyle offer you a glimpse into real Nepali life and this gives visitors an opportunity to observe the rich Nepalese cultural tradition from the closest quarter and intermingle with locals. Apart from this, the area also offers an excellent habitat for a wide variety of plants and animals: 526 species of plants (including 40 species of orchids), and 300 species of birds.

This trek is the most challenging in the area and requires full camping equipment. The Ganjala Pass is also difficult and can be dangerous when snow covered, so to ensure a safe crossing we must enquire locally about its condition. Some mountaineering experience is also necessary. We normally find that the pass is open from April to November, but unusual weather can alter its condition at any time.

To the north east of Kathmandu lies the Jugal Himal, which includes Dorche Lakpa (6966m), Madiya (6257m) and Phurbi Chhyachu (6637m). From the south this is an easily accessible region, though it requires a long, uphill climb. Just above Dolaghat, on the KFriendship high way, a road leads to the large bazaar of Chautara, at 1410m. Our trek starts here, climbing to a ridge and following it north to Pach Pokhari, the Five Lakes, at 3600m. We continue to Tarke Gyang in Helambu and then head back down though Sermathang to reach Melamchipull Bazaar and Pachkhal on the Kodari road.
