Helambu Trek 7 Days, Easy

Arriving in Tribhuwan International Airport (TIA) you will meet with me then transfer to hotel by private vehicles then stay at the Hotel and free activities in the evening.

This day, we drive to sundarijal (1350m.) and Trek to Chisapani, a wide and obvious climbs up beside the enormous water pipe that supplies Kathmandu with drinking water from a reservoir inside Shivapuri National park. First stage of the trek climbs steeply to entry check post. Follow the sign posted trail uphill to the large Tamang village of Mulkharka. The trail continues to climb to reach the pass at Borlang Bhanjyang. The rest of day is the entire down hill through peaceful forests to Oak and rhododendron. Within the hour, you’ll reach a wide track running uphill to Chisapani. The mountains views are excellent from here.

As you leave Chisapani, the trail runs out of the village and continues level among pine plantations on the top of the spur. There are good mountain views as you leave the wide track and drop down into the valley on a muddy zigzagging path. The halfway down the slope, the trail reach the Brahman and chhetri village of Pati Bhanjyang (1770m.). The trail heads north out of the pathi Bhanjayang, a gentle ascent to a small white chorten at the sherpa village of Thakuni Bhanjyang. Climb steeply uphill past the lodge to meet a large trail, then bear right on crumbly stone steps to reach the much larger village of Chipling (2170m.) and then we reach Lapcha Danda. If the sky is clear, you’ll have good views of the peaks as you drop down through rhododendron forest on the far side of the pass. After Thotong (thodang Betini, a friendly tamang village), the path drops for another 30 minutes to tamang village of Golphu Bhanjyang. If it is clear morning, you can see good view of mountains.

This is the most dramatic stage of the trek, with the views that become increasingly epic as the day goes on. However, the climb is steep and sustained. You’ll work up a sweat climbing the 1650m to Tharepati and then face a sudden chill once you encounter the icy winds at the pass. Starting from Golkhu Bhanjyang, climb the hill to Kutumsang(2450m). As you climb the Yurin Danda ridge, you see peaks above Langtang and Gosaikunda soar into view. About three hours after leaving Kutumsang, you’ll drop down to the appealing village of Magin Goth (Magen Goth). There are fabulous views from here to the rocky Thare Danda ridge, where a rugged trail climbs to Gosaikunda. After Magin Goth, it is a steep, two hours climb to reach the Tharepati village (3640m.). A steep path raises above the village to a fluttering white prayer flag on a mind swept hilltop, offering a perfect panaroma of the Langtang Himalaya.

Heading east from the Tharepati, the trail drops rapidly down the ridge, quickly losing those wonderful mountain views. The trail follows rhododendron forest and chortens. The last stage of the walk is an unforgiving drop on the almost vertical trail that will teach you meaning of the word “impact”. a long suspension bridge on the outskirts of Melamchi gaon. Melamchi feels like a teeming metropolies. As we as raising goats and cattle and tending fields of barley, corn and potatoes. Melamchi was founded in in 1859 by the head lama of bouddhnath stupa. In the center of the village has a large, renovated Gompa. It is nice village.

Drive from Melamchi to Kathmandu (1340m, 4 hours driving), overnight at Hotel.

Final departure to international airport to fly your home country.
