Gosainkunda Pass Trek Overview
The Gosainkunda Pass trek is another beautiful trekking route in Nepal located to the north of Kathmandu. There are a total of 108 kundas (lakes) in this area, with Saraswati Kunda, Bhairab Kunda, Surya Kunda, and Gosainkunda being the most prominent along the routes. The Langtang area, north of Kathmandu, is predominantly inhabited by the Tamang ethnic group, whose culture, language, and customs closely resemble those of the Tibetans. The vistas of snowy mountain peaks, such as Langtang Lirung (7,246 m), Gangchenpo (6,383 m), and Dorje Lakpa (6,966 m), are truly breathtaking.
The Langtang National Park, along the Gosainkunda Pass trek, boasts rich biodiversity, offering a chance to spot rare animals like the Red Panda and snow leopard. The lake holds great religious significance for Hindus, with thousands of pilgrims visiting during August. The Langtang valley itself is a marvelous attraction for tourists. One can embark on this trek by driving from Kathmandu to Dhunche, a journey of approximately 6 to 7 hours, either by local or reserved bus.
