Follow remote trails to gain dramatic views of Langtang and Ganesh Ranges
This remarkable trek is an extension of the GosainKunda Lake trek that provides magnificent mountain scenery with few of the crowds that are encountered on other popular trails. After you reach the sacred GosainKunda Lake, the site of a famous annual pilgrimage, you cross Laurebina Pass to enter the lovely Sherpa region of Helambu, trekking all the way back to the Kathmandu Valley.
