This is a holy trek that mixes in with adventure and takes you to the holy lakes of Gosainkund….the hike also extends to high passes with majestic mountains in view. This is a perfect holiday for the holy that see the gods in the beauty of nature.
The trek commences with an overland journey to the small town of Dunche, the main trading post of the area. From here we spend four days hiking up through this beautiful alpine valley to Kyangjin where we rest for a day for some exploration of the high mountains and glacial systems. We Track back for three days before a journey to the sacred lakes of Gosaikund a major pilgrimage sight for both Hindus and Buddhists. We cross the Laurebina pass (4600m) and drop into the lush Helambu region and get first hand experiences of different cultural lifestyles. We eventually finish the trek and head back for an hours drive to Kathmandu. A very rewarding trek in an area very less used.
