The Langtang- Gosainkunda region
is a collection of Sherpa
valleys 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 and
crossing the Laurebina La (4100
m.). Here, you will have
excellent view into Tibet and
meet Hindu pilgrims before
gradually dropping down the
ridges and driving back to
Kathmandu. |
