Yala peak is one of the easiest trekking peaks in Nepal but yet promises an exciting climbing adventure for people new to mountaineering. Situated at the Langtang region, the trekking towards Yala peak itself will be an interesting journey as Langtang is one of Nepal's best trekking destinations.
With an altitude of 5,732m above sea level, Yala peak offers great views of other close-up neighbouring mountains such as Shishapangma and the Ganchempo (6,388m). Climbing Yala peak is not technically difficult and therefore no previous experience with ice-axe, crampons etc is required.

This was a top notch company and the climbing was great. The guide was completely safe and with high winds (too dangerous to climb) we worked together to amend the plans. This made me feel safe. (Note that these are high altitude climbs and one needs to have some climbing experience.) (Also in this time of the year it was cold and at times windy.) I cannot say enough about the Sherpa and the guide. An excellent time and a grand adventure.

The itinerary is very well thought out with lots to see and do. Everyday had a highlight and the Nepalese are so friendly and inviting. The views of the Himalayas in Nagarkot and Pokhara were stunning. The hotels were in excellent locations throughout. There are walks for those who want to and options for those who don't. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone, regardless of physical ability. Our tour leader, Su, was excellent and worked tirelessly to ensure our safety, enjoyment and general happiness. He is the best leader I have had out of some 27 tours. This is Explore's strong point - they know how to pick and train tour leaders and Su was the best of the best.
