Langtang Botanical treks commences as similar to the Langtang valley trek except that return takes a different route passing through an entirely different valley. We drive to Dhunche and further to Shyabrubensi then start of the trek. We trek to Lama Hotel then crossing the Langtang Khola, we start our climb up the Langtang valley through excellent forests. Magnificent views are seen from Kyangjin Gomba and visiting glacier or climb the peaks at a comfortable low elevation. An optional climb to the Yala peak provides stunning views into Tibet. From Kyanjin descending to Langtang, Ghoretabala and Syabru, we ascent through fir & rhododendron forest to Sing Gompa. The route then deviates and we reach the Hindu holy lakes at Gosaikunda, a famous pilgrimage site. Here we have superb views of the central and eastern Himalayan peaks. The trail proceeds to the Tharepati pass, and then drops down to the picturesque Sherpa village of Helambu. The entire Helambu region 72 km north-east of Kathmandu has several highland Tamang and Sherpa villages scattered on both sides of the Melamche Khola.
