The Langtang Ganja La Pass Trek combines the Langtang Valley trail to explore various aspects simultaneously. It connects to one of the most challenging passes in Ganja-La but offers excellent adventure in the Langtang region. The trek’s characteristic is not so far from the Kathmandu valley but is still wild. We also can go hiking to Tserko Ri (5 000 m). It thus offers impressive views of the Langtang range and beautiful alpine pastures.
The taste of an off-the-beaten-track brings us to the Langtang Ganja La Pass Trek into the Langtang valley. It offers beautiful views of the Langtang Lirung and other Tibetan peaks while crossing the Ganja La pass. A daring itinerary of this trek begins from Syabrubesi. Moreover, It needs well-equipped teams to arrange packages for inadequate accommodation, steep climbs, and descents.
The Trek to Ganja La Pass provides an extraordinary experience of nature and cultural influence. For example, the Kyanjing Gompa is a famous monastery, while Tarke Gyang is nearby. It is believed to be a meditation by Buddhist master Padma Sambhawa. Similarly, the routes across the Ganja Pass Trek contain several monasteries and Buddhist shrines. The Helambu Circuit is meanwhile fascinating due to the cultural aspects and warm hospitality of the Hyolmo people.
