Ganesh Himal Trek

Tour itinerary: Kathmandu

Ganesh Himal Trek is a relatively less known and less traveled trekking route in Nepal. It is located in the Langtang region of Nepal, which is north-west of Kathmandu. The trek takes you through lush forests, terraced fields, remote villages, and stunning mountain landscapes. The trek starts from Syabrubesi and passes through several small villages like Gatlang, Chalish, and Tatopani. The trek offers stunning views of the Ganesh Himal range, Langtang range, and the Manaslu range. The highest point of the trek is the Pansang La Pass, which offers panoramic views of the mountains. The best time to do the Ganesh Himal Trek is from September to November and from March to May. During these months, the weather is clear, and the views are spectacular. The trek is considered to be moderately difficult and requires a good level of fitness. The trekking route is not as popular as other routes in Nepal, so you can expect fewer crowds and a more authentic cultural experience.

• Stunning view of Ganesh Himal, Langtang Himal, and Manaslu range. Diverse flora and fauna of Langtang National Park and Manaslu Conservation Area. Trek through Rhododendron and oak forest. Experience the hospitality and traditional villages of Tamang, Gurung, Gatlang, Somang, and Sethun villages.
