 Gosainkunda-Helambu is lies just South of the Tibetan border. This combine trek offers the great diversity in both nature and culture. Its main attraction is Buddhist cultural experience, beautiful Helambu village which is inhabited by Tamang, Sherpas, beautiful mountain views, lots of photographic opportunities, ecologically well managed bio-diversity. This trek also provides a chance to observe one of a holy site of Hindu and Buddhist the sacred Gosainkunda Lake. The area is protected as the Langtang National Park. The most striking feature is the contrasting climate, terrain and flora to be found here within a close proximity. The trail could begin in a tropical forest and by evening put you in the middle of a freezing alpine landscape. The sacred lake of Gosaikunda is one of the chief lures here. The Hindu faithful come to worship the numerous shrines of Lord Shiva in the area. Great views of Langtang Lirung (7245m), Ganesh Himal (7146m) and Dorje Lhakpa (6990m) peaks are the reward for the trekkers. The language, culture and dress of the Helambu Sherpas are very different from the Solu Khumbu Sherpas. Accessibility has created an influx of tourist, making Helambu a popular tourist destination. |
