The Langtang- Gosainkunda region is a collection of Sherpa valleys that lie north of Kathmandu, close to the Tibetan border. The rough road now reaches as far as Dunche, only a day’s drive from Kathmandu. Yet, despite this, Langtang remains a relatively less trekked area. Bill Tillman, a famous explorer and climbing partner of Eric Shipton, described Langtang as one of the world’s most beautiful valleys. We exit by passing the holy lake of Gosainkunda & crossing the Laurebina La (4100m.).
Here, you will have excellent view into Tibet and meet Hindu pilgrims before gradually dropping down the ridges and driving back to Kathmandu.
