It is the less visited by the tourists making a
trek here somewhat more of an adventure. Here the high alpine
scenery, with mountains visible from their base to their peaks.
A trek up to the Langtang Valley have to be one of the most
rewarding of the short trek available anywhere in Nepal. The
trek starts after a day bus journey to Sybru and follows the
Langtang Khola. Initially the trail passes through cultivated
fields and grassy slopes, forests of rhododendron, bamboo and
oak below to the Langtang village. From Kyangin Gompa, the day
trip to Tsergo Ri gives splendid views of peaks of Langtang,
Jugal Himal and Langtang Lirung and Dorje Lakpa.
The route Ganja La Pass starts above the settlements of Kyanjin
to just to the east of he peak of Naya Khang. The trail follows
a small valley before reaching the glaciated pass. The pass is a
serious undertaking requiring good equipment and experienced
guide. Crossing of the pass requires the use of technical
climbing equipment and trekkers must be skilled in the use of
this and be prepared to assist less well-equipped porter staff.
