Craving a Himalayan trekking experience with fewer crowds and authentic encounters? The "Langtang & Gosainkund Lakes" trip is an expertly guided 15-day adventure that begins and ends in Kathmandu, taking you deep into Nepal’s Langtang Valley and to the sacred Gosainkund Lake. Perfect for experienced travelers seeking both challenge and immersion, this circuit route covers Sherpa Gaon, Sing Gompa, Syabrubesi, and more, offering a rich blend of cultural and scenic highlights.
Unlike the more trafficked Annapurna and Everest regions, the Langtang trek is renowned for its tranquility and breathtaking vistas—especially the towering Langtang Lirung (7,246m). In spring, the valley bursts with life, from blossoming rhododendrons to vibrant birdlife, while autumn brings crisp mountain views. Trekkers reach glaciers below Langtang Lirung and can optionally summit Kyanjin Ri or Tsergo Ri for panoramic Himalayan views. The journey’s spiritual heart is Gosainkund, a revered pilgrimage lake ringed by dramatic peaks.
What truly distinguishes this tour package is the exceptional care provided: one of the highest staff-to-traveler ratios in the region, expertly designed acclimatization schedules, and experienced local leaders trained in altitude safety. All guides and porters are insured and fairly compensated, and safety is paramount—oxygen and first-aid equipment are always on hand. By trekking here, you also support the ongoing recovery of Langtang communities post-earthquake, making your journey meaningful as well as memorable.
For those seeking a challenging trek in Nepal, rich with cultural depth and supported by a top-tier team, this trip offers an unparalleled Himalayan experience.

The Langtang and Gosalainkund Lakes trip is a real gem. Having previosly trekked in the Everest and Annapurna regions we chose a different area of Nepal this time and were certainly not disappointed. T The trial itself is very quiet and peaceful, with the poignant reminder of the terrible devastation of the Langtang village. The mood soon lifted the spectacular views of the mountains from Kyanjin Ri and the nearby lake. We were particularly lucky to be spoilt with a beautiful sunset at Gosainkund, where the lake melted into a sea of gold as the sun disappeared, and in the other direction the sky went orange and red. An excellent trip for those that want something different, and more of the same!
Great walk along the Langtang Valley. Very quite compared to other similar treks and good quality teahouses. Some long days and lots of up and down particularly on the 2nd half of the trek
Well organised, with excellent guides who engaged with the group and ensured our needs were met. The scenery was stunning and it was great talking with local people on the trip. Can’t recommend this trip enough- thanks for a fantastic experience
This is a wonderful trek in the Langtang Valley and to the mythical Gosainkund Lane. We enjoyed the most spectacular mountain views and had the privilege of witnessing at first hand the resilience and positivism of the wonderful Nepali people who are rebuilding their communities after the devastation of the 2015 earthquake.
The mountain scenery on this trek is truly inspiring. On the first part of the trek you have Langtang Lirung lofting over you while on the second part-if you are lucky with the weather, you have a truly stunning panoramic view of the Annapurna, Hinalchulu, Manaslu Himal, Ganesh Himal and Langtang Himal again. Finally just as you think it can’t get any better you have a wonderful vista of the Jugal Himal and the Everest Himalaya from Tharepati. And yes you can just make out Everest herself!! The best mountain scenery I have ever seen on a trek incl EBC.
