Ganja La Pass Trek

The Ganja La Trek lies in the culturally and naturally rich in Langtang region, northeast of Kathmandu Valley. This trek is quite more difficult than the classic regular trek of the Langtang Valley and is done by a few tourists as it was introduced relatively late. This trek begins with the 7-9 hours scenic drive to Syabrubesi from Kathmandu. The trek follows the same route as the classic Langtang Valley Trek till Kyangin Gompa. The trek passes through the dense Rhododendron, Bamboo, and Pine forests, beautiful villages, chortens, monasteries, mani walls, etc with stunning views of the snow-capped mountains. From there, the route advances toward the Helambu region via the traverse of Ganja La (5130 M) while trekking through the less explored parts of the Langtang region. The top of the Ganja-La pass offers panoramic views of the Himalayan ranges from the Annapurna range in the far west to Langtang Lirung (7227 M), Shisha Pangma (8013M) in the north of Tibet. For 3 nights between Kyanjin Gompa to Tarkegyang, tented accommodation is needed as there are no settlements. Our 14-days Itinerary is carefully planned by experts ensuring safety with the utmost level of experience. If you would like to customize the itinerary according to your desire, physical fitness level, time frame, etc. please feel free to message us.
