Trek and explore the Gosaikunda Lake in Langtang-Nepal

Hike to the delightful Gosaikunda Lake and feel the spirituality in Langtang.

In Langtang's picturesque alpine terrain, the frozen Lakes and Himalayas present an exciting itinerary to make the trekking exclusively spectacular. The holiest Lake of Nepal, Gosaikunda Lake takes you back to the Hindu mythology of Lord Shiva and the history of how the Lakes around this giant Lake were created by the God.

Gosaikunda Lake is accessible by the trek and by the helicopter too for the devotees with a limited time. But, the walking is highly recommended. Heading through the rhododendron woods and the home of the Red Panda, this steadily takes you through the Tibetan Buddhist settlements.

We are trying to introduce a wonderful trail to the Gosaikunda Lake via Langtang Valley, which becomes a remarkable trip in the Himalayan region.

Syaphrubesi is the gateway to embark the trek in Langtang. Heading through the dense woods and the communities populated by the indigenous people, the excursion takes you to the Langtang valley. Hiking through the isolated trail avoiding motor road on the hilly terrain, the trekkers will be rewarded by the mesmerizing Himalayan vistas and the spiritual attractions of the Tibetan Buddhist devotees- the monasteries and chhortens. As a side trip, Hike to Kyanjin Ri or Tserku Ri is highly recommended.

Retracing from the Langtang valley, the trail connects the Gosaikunda Lake navigating the alpine off-the-beaten route.  The huge blue Lake in summer and the frozen Lake in winter is located there. Exploration of the outstanding Himalayan vistas reflecting in the contiguous crystalline water, its neighboring Lakes, the side trip will lead you through the stone pathways towards the peak.
