Langtang Valley with Ganja La Pass

15 Days

Ganja-La Pass trekking is a popular site for ambitious trekkers looking to test their own level of bravery. It is located in the Langtang Area, a tiny valley located immediately below the main Himalayan range of northern Tibet. A journey to the Langtang Valley allows you to tour Tibetan settlements, Tamang villages, and climb tiny peaks while visiting glaciers at a reasonable elevation.

This walk offers views of the creator’s perfect craftsmanship, including the summits Naya Kanga (5,846m), Ponggen Dopku (5,930m), Mt. Langtang Lirung (7245m), Yala peak, Dorje Lakpa (6966m), Urkeinmang (6387m), Loenpo Gang (6979m), and Kangchenpo..

For this Ganja-La pass trip, mtnepal conducts camping expeditions. Because lodging in the area is limited, we ask that you come prepared with enough food for your excursion. Ganja-La Pass, as one of the most difficult trekking routes, provides a sense of accomplishment once finished.

Overview

The trail leads to Malemchi Gaon and Tarke Ghyang after traveling across the Ganja-La Pass. Sherpas make up the vast majority of the inhabitants in this region. Because Buddhism is the primary religion of the majority of the population, there are several old Buddhist monasteries throughout the villages. Tarke Ghyang is another Sherpa with a unique story.

The town name-Tarke Ghyang- was taken from the name of a temple that was constructed by a Lama (Buddhist Monk), which means “Temple of 100 Horses”. According to legend, the monk was invited to Kathmandu by the King to religiously cure an epidemic by erecting temples. In exchange for his contribution, the Lama requested 100 horses, which he returned to Tarke Ghyang.

In 1969, the local temple was restored in the style of the Bhutanese architect. We will pass past little Buddhist monasteries and a cheese plant founded in 1955 by the Swiss Association.

To trek this route safely, you must have good equipment and some mountaineering expertise. During the spring, the forest along the trail is beautiful and blossoming with rhododendrons.
